## Verdict

Clipform MCP server answered 100% of Glimind's liveness checks over 30 days, better than 42% of MCP servers, with 1027 ms median handshake and 2 outages in 90 days. Its agent-readiness grade is A (94/100) across 33 tools, costing an agent about 16,347 tokens to load. Checked every few minutes; no tool is ever called.
