## Quality 79/100 (good)

### protocol: 75 (weight 25)

- warn `protocol.modern`: newest supported version is 2025-06-18; 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: 71 (weight 30)

- pass `tools.descriptions`: every tool has a description
- pass `tools.description_length`: descriptions are concise
- pass `tools.schemas`: every tool has an object input schema
- fail `tools.annotations`: no tool declares readOnlyHint or destructiveHint, so clients cannot tell safe calls from risky ones
- fail `tools.directory_hints`: no tool declares all four of readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint and openWorldHint; missing: find_ai_tool_alternatives (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); search_ai_tools (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); list_ai_tool_categories (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); …
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 592 tokens to load every tool
- pass `tools.api_dump`: tools are not a one-to-one API dump

### stability: 100 (weight 15)

- pass `stability.changes`: no tool changes in 30 days
- pass `stability.rug_pull`: no tool changed its meaning under the same name

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

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

- tools: 5, about 592 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: 51019711362a76ec873c1998b686314c
- badge: [![protogrid quality](https://protogrid.dev/badge/io.github.shibley/aisotools.svg)](https://protogrid.dev/servers/io.github.shibley/aisotools)
- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

## Tools (5)

- `compare_ai_tools`: Side-by-side comparison of 2-5 AI tools: pricing, rating, features, pros and cons. Use when the user is choosing between named products.
- `find_ai_tool_alternatives`: Alternatives to a given AI tool, drawn from the catalog's curated alternative lists and falling back to same-category tools. Use when the user wants to replace or switch off a product.
- `get_ai_tool`: Full catalog record for one AI tool: description, features, pros, cons, who it is best for, pricing tiers, and alternatives. Accepts a slug or a display name.
- `list_ai_tool_categories`: Every category in the AISOTools catalog with its slug, subcategories, and how many tools it contains. Use the slugs to filter search_ai_tools.
- `search_ai_tools`: Search the AISOTools catalog of AI tools by keyword, category, and pricing model. Returns ranked summaries with the canonical aisotools.com page for each result. Use this first when the user asks which AI tool does something. `matched` is how many tools matched in total and `returned` is how many came back — when `truncated` is true there are more, so do not tell the user the catalog only contains what this page returned; raise `limit` (max 50) instead.
