## Quality 72/100 (needs work)

### 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

### stability: 25 (weight 15)

- warn `stability.changes`: 21 tool changes in 30 days
- fail `stability.rug_pull`: 1 tools kept their name but changed most of their description in 30 days; review before trusting them

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

## Tools (10)

- `ask_host`: Send a question the property record and FAQ don't answer. The answer arrives later; tell the guest you'll follow up. Don't include the guest's contact details. Maps to POST /v1/properties/{id}/questions.
- `cancel_booking`: Two-step. First call with confirm=false to see what the guest gets back if they cancel now (nothing changes). Tell the guest that refund and get their go-ahead, then call again with confirm=true and expected_refund_cents set to the refund amount from the first call. If the refund changed in between, the call fails with refund_changed instead of cancelling. Refunds go to the guest's card automatically. Pass guest_email (the email the booking was made with) unless you connect with an agent token.
- `check_availability`: Day-by-day availability and indicative nightly prices for up to 180 days. Cached; use get_quote to confirm. Useful when the guest's dates are flexible. Maps to GET /v1/properties/{id}/availability.
- `get_booking`: Status, amounts, refund schedule, guest ID verification link, and when arrival details will be sent. Maps to GET /v1/bookings/{id}.
- `get_messages`: The conversation between the guest and the host about a booking, oldest first (including the guest's note with the request and the host's note when accepting or declining). Use it to relay the host's replies. Pass guest_email (the email the booking was made with) unless you connect with an agent token.
- `get_property`: Full record for one property: beds by room, amenities with details, access and stairs, rules, host FAQ, policies, and verification status. The location is approximate on purpose: the exact address and the host's direct contact details are not in the record and are sent to the guest after a confirmed booking, so if asked, say that rather than that they are missing. Maps to GET /v1/properties/{id}.
- `get_quote`: Itemized, binding price for exact dates and party, after re-checking the host's live calendars. Valid 10 minutes. Returns house rules and an exact refund schedule to show the guest. Does not reserve the dates. Maps to POST /v1/properties/{id}/quotes.
- `request_booking`: Request a stay from a quote. Set house_rules_accepted only after the guest has seen and agreed to the quote's house_rules. If the quote's payment.collected_by is "threshold", the booking starts as awaiting_payment and the response includes payment_url: the guest must open payment_url and add a card within 60 minutes, after which the host gets the request (status pending_host_confirmation). Otherwise the request goes to the host immediately and the host arranges payment after accepting. Returns the booking and a status link to give the guest; poll get_booking for changes.
- `search_stays`: Find verified independent vacation rentals. Filters are strict: every listed amenity must be present. With dates, results include a cached availability signal and an indicative all-in total (no guest service fee). Maps to GET /v1/search.
- `send_message`: Send a message to the host on the guest's behalf, e.g. a question about check-in or a late arrival. Only send what the guest asked you to say. The host is emailed and replies appear in get_messages. Open from the request until two weeks after check-out.
