## Quality 89/100 (good)

### protocol: 88 (weight 25)

- pass `protocol.modern`: supports 2026-07-28 (server/discover)
- pass `protocol.stateless`: answers without a session
- pass `protocol.transport`: streamable HTTP
- warn `protocol.list_ttl`: tools/list declares ttlMs 0, so clients re-fetch it on every use

### 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: 86 (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
- pass `tools.annotations`: 3 of 3 tools declare readOnlyHint or destructiveHint
- fail `tools.directory_hints`: no tool declares all four of readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint and openWorldHint; missing: find_places (destructiveHint); get_place (destructiveHint); search_places (destructiveHint)
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 422 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: 3, about 422 tokens to load them all
- tool set hash: 18491cdce9dce4af58fa296767b31a13
- badge: [![protogrid quality](https://protogrid.dev/badge/io.postfinder/places.svg)](https://protogrid.dev/servers/io.postfinder/places)
- Checks run on what our credential-free, read-only probes observe; tools are never called and no code audit is performed.

## Tools (3)

- `find_places`: The places nearest a point, nearest first, with their distance, address, opening hours and the page each one is on. Ask for a category when the question names one: post-offices, parcel-lockers, drop-off-points, post-boxes, express-post-boxes or collection-points.
- `get_place`: Everything about one place from an earlier answer: address, opening hours, what it accepts, and when the record was last checked.
- `search_places`: Suburbs and places matching a name, for turning 'Coburg' or 'Coburg Post Office' into somewhere with a coordinate and a page.
