Third-party server, listed as discovered. Review its source before installing.
19 of 19 tool(s) carry no readOnlyHint/destructiveHint annotations.
Annotate read-only tools with {"readOnlyHint": true}. Agents and gateways can then run them without a confirmation prompt, and route around destructive ones. How to fix →
2 parameter(s) across 1 tool(s) have no description.
Add a "description" to each parameter with its format and an example ("ISO 8601 date, e.g. 2026-10-17"). This is the commonest cause of wrong arguments on the first call. How to fix →
1 tool(s) look like they change state (create/send/delete/pay…) but declare no destructiveHint.
Set annotations {"readOnlyHint": false, "destructiveHint": true|false, "idempotentHint": …}. Clients use these to ask the user before a side effect and to auto-approve safe reads. How to fix →
Negotiates MCP 2024-11-05. Structured output, tool output schemas and elicitation arrived in 2025-06-18.
Upgrade the MCP SDK and negotiate 2025-06-18 or newer. How to fix →
Reachable 96.9% 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.
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 →
Paste-ready definitions with the problems above fixed. Changes marked verify need a human look. 1 tool(s) still need parameter descriptions written by someone who knows the API. All of them as JSON: /v1/readiness/mcp-registry%2Fglobal.rootz.cars%2Fmarketplace/fixes

Point your MCP client at this streamable-http endpoint: https://cars.rootz.global/mcp
Glimind scanned all 19 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.
