Dependency rating derived
allow — alive & usable · action ● · V n/a
Cluster mid-slow-solo · distinctiveness 0.655 (unusual). Every figure is a percentile or class within the 15,472-server census — see the whole spectrum.
🔏 Signed receipt rr_812afea3509f487eb651ea1e · ed25519 · key rs-rcpt-2026-08 — this rating is tamper-evident; an agent gets the full signature from check_server and can verify it against the published key.
● observed · ◐ derived · ○ reported — the verdict synthesizes Q1–Q4; Q5 is context. Methodology →
History observed
Every probe we made, oldest → newest (3 shown, 2026-08-23 → 2026-09-06). Green answered · amber answered-but-walled · red no useful answer. A gap in our cadence is a gap in coverage, not evidence about the server.

What kind of tools these are derived
Verification only means something relative to a tool's NATURE — an email-sender has no "true answer", a generator has no answer key. Classification evidence: classified from tool names/descriptions/annotations WE OBSERVED. What checking applies to each kind (the full methodology →):
| nature | tools | meaning | what checking applies |
|---|---|---|---|
| action | 11 | changes the world | no true answer exists; we check the CONTRACT (destructive/read-only/idempotent declarations, error legibility) and never fire real actions |
| unclassified | 9 | not classifiable from its text | Tier-1 only until its tools describe themselves |
| retrieval-public | 3 | serves public facts | truth-checkable against a public source — the V-ladder applies in full |
| generative | 2 | creates content | no answer key exists; disclosure + stability checks, never truth verdicts |
Tools last seen observed
Harness readiness observed
Can an agent's harness pick this tool and call it correctly? Graded on the three things an agent reads — name, description, typed parameters. Band A — an agent can pick and call these reliably.
| legibility check | tools passing | ok |
|---|---|---|
| name is clear & specific | 25/25 | ✓ |
| has a description | 25/25 | ✓ |
| description is substantive | 25/25 | ✓ |
| parameters are typed | 25/25 | ✓ |
| parameters are described | 17/25 | 17/25 |
25 of 25 tools graded · 25 with a captured input schema. RS-008, Tier-1 — no domain knowledge, applies to any tool. “Alive” is not the same as “usable”.
Truth checks observed
0/2 answers agree with the published primary source.
