## Quality –/100 (not scored)

Not scored: fewer than three checks apply, usually because no remote answered a credential-free probe or the server is a local package.

### protocol: 75 (weight 25)

- warn `protocol.modern`: newest supported version is 2025-03-26; 2026-07-28 not supported, older versions are deprecated until 2027-07-28
- n/a `protocol.stateless`: only applies to 2026-07-28 servers
- pass `protocol.transport`: streamable HTTP
- n/a `protocol.list_ttl`: only applies to 2026-07-28 servers

### authorization: n/a (weight 15)

- n/a `auth.prm`, `auth.as_metadata`, `auth.cimd`: no remote uses OAuth
- n/a `auth.secret_in_url`: no templated URL

### tool hygiene: n/a (weight 30)

- n/a `tools.descriptions`, `tools.description_length`, `tools.schemas`, `tools.annotations`, `tools.directory_hints`, `tools.token_cost`, `tools.api_dump`: tool list unknown (behind auth, not probed, or empty)

### stability: n/a (weight 15)

- n/a `stability.changes`, `stability.rug_pull`: tool list unknown

### dependencies: n/a (weight 15)

- n/a `deps.known_vulns`, `deps.mcp_sdk_version`, `deps.resolvable`: no npm or PyPI package

- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

### Tool changes

- 2026-10-16 `entity_profile` removed
  - "Tell me about X" / "research Acme" / "brief me on Tesla" / "what does Apple do" / "company profile for Microsoft" / "give me the rundown on NVDA" / "everything you know about $TICKER" — full cross-source profile of a US public company in ONE parallel call. ALWAYS PREFER over chaining single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups when the user asks for a holistic view. Fans out across SEC EDGAR, XBRL, USPTO patents, federal contracts (USAspending), FDA-licensed biologics (Purple Book), H-1B hiring (DOL LCA), news and GLEIF, and returns: cik + company_name (+ resolved_from/resolved_to when `value` was a name); recent_filings (up to 5 with pipeworx://edgar/company/{cik}/filings/{accession} URIs); fundamentals (LATEST 10-K Revenues + NetIncomeLoss + Cash, sorted period_end DESC); patents (USPTO PatentsView API sunset May 2025 — soft-fails until reactivated); federal_contracts (USAspending awards where the company is the recipient); fda_products (FDA-licensed biologics — vaccines, cell/gene therapies — from the Purple Book; a company with only small-molecule/generic drugs will show none here, that is expected, not a failure); hiring (H-1B sponsorship volume + salary range from DOL LCA filings); recent news mentions via GDELT→GNews fallback; LEI via GLEIF. `sources_used` / `sources_failed` say which of these actually returned data for THIS company — an empty section is a real "no data", not a bug. `sources_skipped` is the third state: a leg we deliberately did NOT run, each entry carrying a `reason` token and a plain-English `detail` (the Purple Book is skipped for a filer SEC classifies outside the life-science SIC bands, since it lists only 351(a)/(k) biologics licence holders). Pass a ticker ("AAPL"), zero-padded CIK ("0000320193"), OR a company name ("Moderna") — names now resolve via SEC EDGAR's company-name match; a private company (no CIK/ticker) returns resolved:false with an explicit `notes` line, not a bare failure. `type` accepts "company" or "ticker" interchangeably — both take the same `value` shapes above.
- 2026-10-16 `ask_pipeworx` removed
  - PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for questions about current or historical data: SEC filings, FDA drug data, FRED/BLS economic statistics, government records, USPTO patents, ATTOM real estate, weather, clinical trials, news, stocks, crypto, sports, academic papers, or anything requiring authoritative structured data with citations. Routes the question to the right one of 6,875 tools across 1811 verified sources, fills arguments, returns the structured answer with stable pipeworx:// citation URIs. Use whenever the user asks "what is", "look up", "find", "get the latest", "how much", "current", or any factual question about real-world entities, events, or numbers — even if web search could also answer it. Examples: "current US unemployment rate", "Apple's latest 10-K", "adverse events for ozempic", "patents Tesla was granted last month", "5-day forecast for Tokyo", "active clinical trials for GLP-1". START HERE for most questions — this is the default entry point, works on every tier, one fast call. Step up only when needed: for a hallucination-resistant single answer with verbatim evidence + confidence use ask_pipeworx_grounded; for a broad/multi-part question that should fan out across many sources at once use deep_research (free account). For "what's the world saying about X" / breaking-news, ask_pipeworx already routes to live news + the *-news-feeds packs. Optionally pass packs:["slug","slug"] to restrict routing to specific sources ("answer this using THESE packs"); omit it for full-catalog routing.
- 2026-10-16 `search_autocomplete` removed
  - Autocomplete suggestions.
- 2026-10-16 `organisations` removed
  - List GOV.UK government organisations (departments, agencies, etc.) with title, URL path, acronym, and operational state, paginated via start and count (default 20, max 100 per page).
- 2026-10-16 `hmrc_manual_changes` removed
  - Read what HMRC most recently changed in one of its internal manuals — the per-section revision log the department publishes with each manual, newest first. Each entry carries the section id and title, HMRC's own note of what changed ("Updated for change in legislation for intermediaries", "Page withdrawn"), its published_at and age_days. Use it to tell whether HMRC's stated position on a topic has moved, to audit a manual's freshness, or to watch a specific area of UK tax guidance for revisions.
- 2026-10-16 `hmrc_manual_section` removed
  - Retrieve the full text of one section of an HMRC internal manual (or another UK departmental manual), by its base_path or by manual plus section id such as EIM42750. Returns the section title, its text, its place in the manual's structure, whether it has been withdrawn, and its published_at / source_last_modified with age_days so you can tell how current HMRC's stated position is.
- 2026-10-16 `hmrc_manual_search` removed
  - Find the section of an HMRC internal manual that answers a UK tax question asked in plain words — salary sacrifice, benefits in kind, travel and subsistence expenses, termination payments, share schemes, residence and domicile, capital gains reliefs, VAT liability, IR35 and off-payroll working, pension annual allowance, inheritance tax reliefs, penalties and compliance. This is HMRC's own working interpretation of the UK tax code, section by section, and it is the level at which UK tax questions are actually answered. Returns each matching section with its manual, its section id (EIM42750, CG12345 and the like), its URL, its published_at date and age_days. Narrow to one manual with the manual argument. Retrieve the full text of a hit with hmrc_manual_section.
- 2026-10-16 `hmrc_manuals` removed
  - List HM Revenue & Customs internal manuals and other UK departmental manuals — the guidance HMRC caseworkers and other officials actually apply, published in full. Covers income tax, PAYE, employment income, capital gains, corporation tax, VAT, inheritance tax, pensions, stamp duty, national insurance, trusts, residence and domicile, double taxation, compliance and penalties, plus non-HMRC manuals from other departments. Use this to see what manuals exist and their base_paths, then hmrc_manual_search to find the section that answers a question.
- 2026-10-16 `search` removed
  - Search everything published on GOV.UK — guidance, forms, statistics, consultations, news, policy papers and departmental manuals — by free text, optionally narrowed to one document format. Returns titles, URL paths and publication timestamps.
- 2026-10-16 `content` removed
  - Fetch the full rendered content and metadata of any single GOV.UK page from its base_path — guidance, a policy paper, an organisation page, a departmental manual or one section of one. Returns title, description, body, publication and last-updated timestamps, and the page's links. Use gov_uk_search or hmrc_manual_search first when you do not already know the base_path.
