What we checked
Security
Passed: Connections are encrypted (HTTPS).
Passed: No hidden instructions found in tool text.
Safety labels
Warning: 1 of 1 tools do not say whether they can change things.
MCP lets a server label each tool as read-only or destructive, so clients can ask the user before risky calls. Unlabelled tools are treated as able to change things.
- search_patents
Tools
Passed: 1 tool listed.
Passed: Every tool describes its inputs with a valid schema.
Protocol
Warning: Uses the older HTTP+SSE transport.
The MCP spec replaced it with Streamable HTTP in 2025-03-26. Some clients no longer support it.
Note: Protocol version 2025-06-18.
Passed: The MCP handshake works (older HTTP+SSE transport).
Passed: Unknown requests are refused.
Connection
Passed: The server responds.
Tools (1)
As the server describes them. The labels are the server's own: it says whether each tool only reads or can change things.
