## Quality 91/100 (strong)

### protocol: 75 (weight 25)

- warn `protocol.modern`: newest supported version is 2025-11-25; 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: 100 (weight 30)

- pass `tools.descriptions`: every tool has a description

- pass `tools.annotations`: 11 of 11 tools declare readOnlyHint or destructiveHint
- pass `tools.directory_hints`: every tool declares readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint and openWorldHint
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 1,714 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: 11, about 1,714 tokens to load them all

## Tools (11)

- `browse`: List the available values for one taxonomy kind across the corpus: persona, route, domain, condition, or age-band. Use this to discover what can be passed to `topic`.
- `compare`: Compare two developmental topics, conditions, or skills side by side (e.g. 'speech delay' vs 'autism'; 'speech therapy' vs 'occupational therapy'). Returns corpus-grounded points of similarity and difference. Non-diagnostic.
- `fetch`: Fetch the full published answer for a Pinnacle Ask result. `id` accepts a slug from `search`, an /ask path, or a full pinnacleblooms.org/ask URL. Returns the complete answer document (markdown), Everyday Therapy™ tip, what-to-watch guidance, FAQs, and the canonical URL to cite.
- `home`: Overview of the Pinnacle Ask knowledge layer: featured content, corpus statistics, and entry points. Takes no arguments. Good first call to orient before searching.
- `lookup_code`: Look up Pinnacle Ask content by clinical/standards code — WHO ICF (e.g. 'b167'), ICD-11, ICHI, or SNOMED. Returns corpus entries crosswalked to that code. Useful for clinicians, researchers, and policy teams.
- `milestones`: Developmental milestones from the Pinnacle Ask corpus, optionally filtered by child age in months and developmental domain. Use to answer 'what should my child be doing at N months' style questions. Non-diagnostic.
- `pathway`: Trace how a developmental topic or skill progresses across age stages — a staged pathway view (e.g. how 'speech' develops from babbling to sentences). Returns corpus entries grouped per stage.
- `red_flags`: Early warning signs ('what to watch') for a developmental topic, domain, and/or age in months — framed as guidance to seek professional evaluation, never as a diagnosis. Use when a caregiver asks whether a behaviour is concerning.
- `related`: Questions and answers related to a given Pinnacle Ask entry — the interlinked query graph around one id. `id` accepts a slug, /ask path, or full URL.
- `search`: Search the Pinnacle Ask child-development knowledge corpus (pinnacleblooms.org/ask) — real parent questions with clinically grounded, non-diagnostic answers covering speech, motor, social, cognitive, sensory, feeding and behavioural development from birth to 18 years. Returns ranked results with ids; pass a result id to `fetch` for the full answer. Optionally filter by child age in months and/or developmental domain.
- `topic`: Curated hub of Pinnacle Ask content for one value of a taxonomy: kind ∈ persona | route | domain | condition | age-band, plus the value (e.g. kind='condition', value='autism'). Use `browse` first to discover valid values.
