Core

  • Pass
    Reachable

    Latest probe returned HTTP 200 in 157 ms.

  • Pass
    Valid handshake

    protocolVersion 2025-03-26, serverInfo.name appside-mcp.

  • Pass
    Lists tools

    tools/list returned 13 tools.

  • Fail
    Current protocol

    Negotiated 2025-03-26. The bar is 2025-06-18 or newer.

  • Pass
    HTTPS

    The endpoint URL is https.

Performance

  • Not measured
    Fast (p50)

    Median latency 157 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 157 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

    Every tool description is at least 20 characters.

  • Pass

    Safety hints

    Every tool sets readOnlyHint or destructiveHint.

Publisher

  • Pass

    Website matches publisher

    The website host matches the reverse-domain namespace.

  • Fail
    Source repo linked

    No 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.

Capabilities

Tools 13

claim_mcp_listing

Get a domain-proof token with file URLs and DNS TXT records for an MCP listing. Publish the exact token at any supplied URL or TXT name (exact host only). Pass token or an Authorization: Bearer header on HTTP /mcp. Never publish credentials.

Discovered
confirm_mcp_claim

Confirm domain proof after publishing the exact verification token at a supplied file URL or DNS TXT name. DNS propagation may take time. Pass token or an Authorization: Bearer header on HTTP /mcp. Never publish credentials.

Discovered
create_account

Create an Appside account without a form. Save the bearer token securely; it is shown once. Give the human the claimUrl. Unclaimed accounts expire after 30 days.

Discovered
get_app

Get a verified public app by registration id or slug. Pending, expired or moderated listings are not returned; no private contacts or verification tokens are exposed.

Discovered
get_pricing

Get Appside published payment fee and fixed-fee policy.

Discovered
get_sdk_snippet

Get a repository SDK example and its documented verification status. Grant items only on verified backend delivery.

Discovered
get_sdk_status

List all SDK download URLs, install instructions and scoped verification status, or select one platform.

Discovered
register_app

List any app or game you built in the Appside public app catalog. No Appside store or account required. Supply plain-text metadata and your website or exact https://<account>.itch.io/<game> page (or App Store/Google Play listing for a store-only app). Returns an id and ownership token; publish the token then call verify_app. Nothing is public until verified; pending entries expire after 14 days.

Discovered
search_apps

Search verified public apps and games by text, category or playable web build. Pending, expired and moderated listings are excluded.

Discovered
search_docs

Search Appside public developer Markdown; returns source links and excerpts.

Discovered
submit_index_entry

Submit a web store to the Index for review; does not establish ownership or publish automatically. Pass token or an Authorization: Bearer header on HTTP /mcp. Never publish credentials.

Discovered
submit_mcp_server

Submit an MCP server for connectivity checks. Domain proof is still required to claim ownership. Pass token or an Authorization: Bearer header on HTTP /mcp. Never publish credentials.

Discovered
verify_app

Verify a pending registration after publishing the returned token at /.well-known/appside-verify.txt or in a meta name="appside-verify" content="TOKEN" tag on the submitted website. For itch.io, put the token anywhere in the public text of the exact submitted game page (edit its description). Store-only apps put the token in every submitted public store description. Success makes the catalog page searchable and indexable.
