Block For Production
trustsnap_ba46b4d821d51ed0.- Utility Coverage
- Trust Confidence
- Tool Surface Design
- Make tools/list succeed unauthenticated when possible, or document the auth flow in the server card.
- Fix the failing checks first, then revalidate to confirm the recovery path.
- Compare tool enumeration outputs between runs and remove non-deterministic behavior.
- No segmented attention signals observed in the current window.
Dispute this assessment
If any published claim about this server -- its score, a risk flag, a capability classification, or its taxonomy -- is factually wrong, tell us what evidence shows and we will review it. This does not require claiming or verifying ownership of the server first.
Verify responds to disputes within 5 business days and resolves them within 15.
Dispute history
No disputes filed for this server.

Tool capability & risk inventory

Write-action governance

Action-controls diff
Need at least two validation runs before diffing action controls.
Critical alerts
Compatibility
Client compatibility verdicts
Client compatibility only means the server shape can work with a client. Production trust decision and write-action publishing are evaluated separately so a client-compatible server can still be blocked for production.

Remediation checklist
OpenAI connectors expect OAuth for remote server auth.Dynamic client registration materially improves connector setup.tools/list must succeed.Transport compliance failed or did not complete successfully.OAuth interoperability should be strong.The tool surface is not limited to search/fetch-style read tools.
Remediation checklist
tools/list must succeed.Transport behavior should match Claude-compatible HTTP expectations.A useful Claude integration needs at least one exposed tool.The tool surface is not limited to search/fetch-style read tools.OAuth is not configured, so this client cannot authenticate without additional setup.Not yet safe for company-knowledge use: requires a search/fetch-only surface with no export, bulk, mutating, or high-blast-radius exposure.
Remediation checklist
Add a clearer auth boundary around risky write actions.Add confirmation or dry-run semantics for risky actions.Production readiness is blocked by an active alert: Latest validation is failing.Production readiness is blocked by an active alert: tools/list regressed.Production readiness is blocked by an active alert: Auth mode changed.

Fix it
Why this score?
Algorithmic score breakdown
Actionable remediation
| Severity | Remediation | Why it matters | Recommended action |
|---|---|---|---|
| Critical | Ensure tools/list succeeds consistently | Tools discovery is the minimum viable contract for most MCP clients and directories. | Make tools/list succeed unauthenticated when possible, or document the auth flow in the server card.Playbook
|
| Critical | Respond to latest validation is failing | Core MCP flows did not validate successfully on the latest run. | Fix the failing checks first, then revalidate to confirm the recovery path.Playbook
|
| Critical | Respond to tools/list regressed | Tool discovery became less reliable on the latest run. | Compare tool enumeration outputs between runs and remove non-deterministic behavior. |
| High | Align session and protocol behavior with Streamable HTTP expectations | Clients increasingly rely on MCP-Protocol-Version, session teardown, and expired-session semantics. | Align MCP-Protocol-Version, MCP-Session-Id, DELETE teardown, and expired-session handling with the transport spec.Playbook
|
| High | Expose /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource | Without a protected-resource document, OAuth clients cannot discover auth requirements reliably. | Serve /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource and point it at your authorization server metadata.Playbook
|
| High | Publish OAuth authorization-server metadata | Clients need authorization-server metadata to discover issuer, endpoints, and DCR support. | Publish /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server from your issuer and include registration_endpoint when supported.Playbook
|
| High | Publish a complete server card | Missing or incomplete server-card metadata weakens discovery, documentation, and trust signals. | Serve /.well-known/mcp/server-card.json and include tools, prompts/resources, homepage, and support links.Playbook
|
| High | Resolve conflicting endpoints across registry aliases | Registry aliases for this canonical server currently resolve to different live MCP endpoints (https://glama.ai/mcp/servers/jz53nworbz, https://www.marian.coach/mcp). An agent following one registry entry reaches a different server than one following another. | Confirm which endpoint is canonical, correct or retire the stale registry entry, and re-sync so every alias agrees on one remote_url.Playbook
|
| High | Respond to auth mode changed | Auth mode changed from unknown to public. | Document the new auth posture and confirm protected-resource and challenge metadata still match reality. |
| Medium | Adopt a current MCP protocol revision | Older protocol revisions reduce compatibility with newer clients and registry programs. | Advertise a current MCP protocol revision (2025-06-18 or later) in both the initialize response and the MCP-Protocol-Version header.Playbook
|
| Medium | Close connector-publishing gaps | Connector catalogs care about protocol recency, session behavior, auth clarity, and tool-surface stability. | |
| Medium | Document minimal scopes and return cleaner auth challenges | Modern clients expect granular scopes and step-up auth signals such as WWW-Authenticate scope hints. | Return granular scopes and WWW-Authenticate challenge hints instead of forcing overly broad auth upfront.Playbook
|
| Medium | Publish OpenID configuration | OIDC metadata improves token validation and client compatibility. | Expose /.well-known/openid-configuration with issuer, jwks_uri, and supported grants.Playbook
|
| Medium | Raise Access & Protocol score | Connectivity, auth, and transport expectations for common clients. | Tighten auth discovery, session behavior, and transport metadata until remote clients can connect without guesswork. |
| Medium | Raise Adoption & Market score | Adoption clues and public evidence that the server is intended for external use. | Increase external documentation and directory coverage so users can discover and evaluate the server. |
| Medium | Raise Interface Quality score | How well the tool/resource interface communicates and behaves under automation. | Improve schemas, error contracts, and recovery messages so agents can reason about the surface automatically. |
| Medium | Raise Reliability & Trust score | Operational stability, consistency, and trustworthiness over time. | Stabilize behavior over time and reduce failure drift between validation runs. |
| Medium | Raise Security Posture score | How safely the exposed tool surface handles destructive actions, egress, execution, secrets, and risky inputs. | Reduce destructive, egress, exec, secret, and freeform-input risk across the exposed tool surface.Playbook
|
| Low | Expose modern utility surfaces like completions, pagination, or tasks | Utility coverage improves interoperability with larger clients and long-lived agent workflows. | Expose completions, pagination, and task metadata where supported so larger clients can plan and resume work safely.Playbook
|
| Low | Publish newer MCP capability signals | Roots, sampling, elicitation, structured outputs, and related metadata improve client understanding and ranking. | Advertise only the advanced capabilities (roots, sampling, elicitation) you have actually implemented end to end in the initialize capabilities object.Playbook
|
| Low | Publish or reconcile the server in the official MCP registry | Official registry presence improves discovery confidence and cross-source consistency. |

Governance
MCP TrustOps
TrustOps turns this report into operational controls: freshness SLAs, authenticated validation, semantic benchmarks, policy exports, alert subscriptions, badges, cost/compliance metadata, and runtime routing. Fresh trusted index decisions stay separate from long-tail inventory so stale scores do not masquerade as current evidence.

MCP Runtime hosting
Verify Hosted MCP turns a trusted server report into a managed remote MCP endpoint with GitHub deployment provenance, sandbox policy, encrypted secrets, release history, rollback, and audit/usage events.
