Third-party server, listed as discovered. Review its source before installing.
Reachable 97.3% of the time over the last 30 days; median recovery 7 min.
Agents fail over to an alternative the first time a call fails. Add health checks and restart-on-failure, and avoid cold starts on serverless hosts.
Handshake + tools/list takes ~1,691 ms.
Serve tools/list from memory, keep the process warm, and host close to your users. Every new agent session pays this before its first call.
No tool declares an outputSchema.
Declare outputSchema and return structuredContent (MCP 2025-06-18+). Agents can then parse results without guessing, and chain tools reliably. How to fix →
Requires authentication (Bearer); tool definitions could not be read anonymously.
If discovery should be public, allow initialize + tools/list without credentials and gate only tools/call. Directories and routers can then list your tools.

Glimind scanned all 6 tool definitions for tool-poisoning patterns — hidden or invisible characters, instructions that override the model, concealment from the user, requests to read credential or MCP config files, conversation exfiltration and cross-tool shadowing — and found none. This checks what the server tells the model, not what its code does; review the source before granting access to sensitive data.
