## Quality 85/100 (good)

### 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: 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`: 10 of 10 tools declare readOnlyHint or destructiveHint
- fail `tools.directory_hints`: no tool declares all four of readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint and openWorldHint; missing: search_hexagrams (destructiveHint, openWorldHint); get_hexagrams (destructiveHint, openWorldHint); list_hexagrams (destructiveHint, openWorldHint); …
- pass `tools.token_cost`: about 1,789 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: 10, about 1,789 tokens to load them all

## Tools (10)

- `get_all_hexagrams`: The full 64-hexagram dataset in one call (bulk; stricter rate limit). Optional order: kingwen (default), mawangdui, eightpalaces, binary. Data © IChing.Rocks — attribution is a condition of the license terms: https://iching.rocks/mcp-terms.
- `get_hexagram`: One hexagram by King Wen number (1-64). Optional include level: summary, core (default), lines, full. Sibling tools cover the other cases: get_hexagrams for several numbers at once, get_all_hexagrams for the entire set, search_hexagrams to find hexagrams by text, and get_reading_context for a changing-line reading. Data © IChing.Rocks — attribution is a condition of the license terms: https://iching.rocks/mcp-terms.
- `get_hexagrams`: Batch hexagram lookup by King Wen numbers (max 16 ids per call). Optional include level: summary, core (default), lines, full. Data © IChing.Rocks — attribution is a condition of the license terms: https://iching.rocks/mcp-terms.
- `get_reading_context`: Deterministic reading context for a primary hexagram (1-64) and 0-6 ascending changing lines. Empty changing_lines returns the primary hexagram only; one or more changing lines add the resulting hexagram, the transition, and the changing-line texts. No divination is performed. Data © IChing.Rocks — attribution is a condition of the license terms: https://iching.rocks/mcp-terms.
- `get_server_info`: Build identity of the running iching.rocks MCP server: name, semantic version, git revision, protocol, and canonical MCP endpoint. Identity only — returns no hexagram data.
- `get_trigram`: One of the eight trigrams by exactly one identifier: binary (e.g. 010), english (e.g. Fire), chinese (pinyin, e.g. Li), symbolic (e.g. Radiance), or element (Chinese character, e.g. 火). This returns a single trigram; list_trigrams returns all eight. Data © IChing.Rocks — attribution is a condition of the license terms: https://iching.rocks/mcp-terms.
- `list_hexagrams`: Compact index of all 64 I Ching hexagrams (id, name, pinyin, characters, essence, trigrams, url). Optional order: kingwen (default), mawangdui, eightpalaces, binary. This is the summary index only; get_hexagram (or get_hexagrams) returns full detail for a known number, get_all_hexagrams returns the full dataset in one call, and search_hexagrams finds hexagrams by text. Data © IChing.Rocks — attribution is a condition of the license terms: https://iching.rocks/mcp-terms.
- `list_sequences`: Describes the four canonical hexagram orderings (kingwen, mawangdui, eightpalaces, binary) with their 64-entry sequences. Data © IChing.Rocks — attribution is a condition of the license terms: https://iching.rocks/mcp-terms.
- `list_trigrams`: All eight trigrams with font, binary, pinyin, symbolic name, english name, element character, and function. Data © IChing.Rocks — attribution is a condition of the license terms: https://iching.rocks/mcp-terms.
- `search_hexagrams`: Deterministic literal/keyword search over a closed whitelist of hexagram text fields (not semantic). Case-, diacritic-, and traditional/simplified Chinese-insensitive. Optional fields, order, and limit (default 10, max 64). Texts are an original IChing.Rocks translation; vocabulary from classic English translations (Wilhelm/Baynes, Legge, Blofeld) may not match literally.
