Core

  • Pass
    Reachable

    Latest probe returned HTTP 200 in 286 ms.

  • Pass
    Valid handshake

    protocolVersion 2025-11-25, serverInfo.name naulon-wayfarer-mcp.

  • Pass
    Lists tools

    tools/list returned 8 tools.

  • Pass
    Current protocol

    Negotiated 2025-11-25. The bar is 2025-06-18 or newer.

  • Pass
    HTTPS

    The endpoint URL is https.

Performance

  • Not measured
    Fast (p50)

    Median latency 286 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 286 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 3000 ms. Need at least 20 samples.

  • Not measured
    Reliable (uptime)

    1 of 1 attempts returned a tool list in 30 days (100%). The bar is 99%. Need at least 30 samples.

  • Not measured
    Stable tool list

    Fewer than two successful probes in 30 days, so tool-list stability is not measured.

Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

  • Not measured
    Standard auth

    Auth is not required, so the OAuth metadata check does not apply.

  • Not measured
    Free tier cited

    No publisher quote has been checked.

Tools

  • Pass
    Tools described

    Every tool description is at least 20 characters.

  • Pass
    Valid input schemas

    Every inputSchema is a JSON Schema object.

  • Pass
    Parameters documented

    12 of 12 parameters have a description (100%). The bar is 80%.

  • Pass
    Safety hints

    Every tool sets readOnlyHint or destructiveHint.

Publisher

  • Pass
    Verified namespace

    Listed in the Official MCP Registry.

  • Pass
    Website matches publisher

    The website host matches the reverse-domain namespace.

  • Pass
    Source repo linked

    A repository URL is on file.

  • Not measured
    Repo owner matches

    This namespace is not an io.github login, so the owner comparison does not apply.

  • Pass
    Recently updated

Capabilities

Tools 8

naulon_appraise

Score how relevant each candidate is to the topic, from its free teaser alone — a 0..1 relevance plus a one-line rationale. Pass the candidates you got from naulon_discover (or a curated subset), and pass them back WHOLE — `matchedInBody` / `matchedSemantic` tell the scorer WHY the search returned each one, and dropping them makes a body-matched source with a terse teaser look identical to a near-miss with a keyword-ish one. FREE: it reads the teaser and those flags, never paid content, and it fetches and pays for nothing. Use it to decide what is worth quoting.

Discovered
naulon_check_citations

FREE citation and retraction check. For up to 25 references (a DOI, PMID, PMCID, arXiv id, or the reference as written), say whether each work exists and whether it was retracted, withdrawn, corrected or put under an expression of concern. Use it before you cite. Facts from Crossref and Retraction Watch; no judgement of the research. For a retracted or withdrawn citation, up to three reviews and trials that cite it are suggested; for an unfound one, up to three papers on its subject; each with its licence.

Discovered
naulon_discover

Browse a TOPIC: list candidate articles by title and teaser, with no verdict on whether any of them answers a question. Returns FREE public teasers only — slug, title, and summary — with no content and no payment. Call this first to see what is available before appraising or quoting. A candidate may carry WHY it matched: `matchedInBody` means your terms are inside the paid text but NOT in the title or teaser (strong — the teaser just does not show it), `matchedSemantic` means only that it is near your query in meaning and your terms are absent (weak: judge the teaser, and set aside one that is off-topic). NEITHER flag set means one of two opposite things, so read it against the rest of the response: if any OTHER candidate here carries a flag, this source searches, and no flag is the STRONGEST result of all — your terms matched the title or teaser, which is why no body-only or semantic explanation was needed. If NO candidate in the response carries a flag, the source does not search (a plain RSS feed), and the absence says nothing at all — judge every candidate on its teaser. Discovery returns the best available matches, never a promise that any of them answers your question.

Discovered
naulon_lookup

FREE. Get the record of one source you already have the address of: a publisher page by its URL, or a paper by DOI, PMID, PMCID or arXiv id. For a page it returns the title, site, summary and its read and citation prices. For a paper it returns the title, authors, venue, year, retraction and correction notices, licence, abstract where it may be shown, and where a free copy is. It searches nothing: to find sources by topic use naulon_discover or naulon_search.

Discovered
naulon_quote

Probe the real x402 toll for a source WITHOUT paying — the free 402 price check. Returns the author price, the buyer's true total (when the publisher adds extra settlement legs such as an operator fee, the total is higher than the author price), and the settlement terms. gated:false means one thing only — the origin answered 2xx, so it is a genuinely free read you may just fetch. Anything else returns refused:true with the reason in note: a refusal to reach the url (off-gate identity, or operator policy such as a kill-switch or deny-list), a 404, an unreachable origin, or a malformed 402. A refused url is NEITHER payable nor free — do not fetch it and do not report it as free; retry or fix the url.

Discovered
naulon_retrieve

FREE preview, RESEARCH PAPERS only. For a question, lists the open CC0, CC BY, CC BY-SA or public-domain papers that could answer it and the price of each mode (answer, retrieve). This tool never pays and never runs the answer. Prices only: nothing on this server buys. How buying works: https://naulon.app/docs/for-buyers

Discovered
naulon_search

FREE. Ask a QUESTION: search every naulon publisher's articles and get each match priced, with its public summary, `url`, and a verdict on whether it answers the question and what reading it would add. For a plain list of a topic's articles with no verdict, use naulon_discover. Prices only: nothing on this server buys. How buying works: https://naulon.app/docs/for-buyers

Discovered
naulon_trace_passage

FREE. Find which naulon publisher pages a passage was copied from, word for word. Returns each page's title, url, and whether it holds most of the passage or part of it, plus how many Citation Licenses the page has sold where its publisher shows that. It detects verbatim reuse only, not paraphrase or training. Send 40 words to 5000 characters.
