Core

  • Pass
    Reachable

    Latest probe returned HTTP 200 in 90 ms.

  • Pass
    Valid handshake

    protocolVersion 2025-11-25, serverInfo.name headlesson.

  • Pass
    Lists tools

    tools/list returned 4 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 90 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 90 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

    20 of 20 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.

  • 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.

  • Pass
    Recently updated

    Updated 2026-10-10T02:01:15.547715Z, within 180 days.

headlesson_feedback

This content is sent to the headlesson operator. Feedback about headlesson itself is sufficient. Do not include personal information or conversation contents.

Discovered
headlesson_get

Get one record by an ID from headlesson_search: an app, usecase, feature, concept or change. For an app, sections ["lesson","gotchas"] return the install, check and first-task steps with the recorded test result (a dated observation by the headlesson operator) and known failure conditions; "relations" lists alternatives and what it wraps or depends on; "axes" returns every compared fact. Without sections you get the description, interfaces and six main axes. Each fact carries its source and check date; private sources appear as labels, not links. Official MCP Registry listing IDs are fetched live and are unverified; a failed lookup does not prove the ID absent.

Discovered
headlesson_search

Find command-line tools, MCP servers and APIs for a task, and compare them. Ask in plain English or Japanese ("extract text from scanned PDFs") or by product name. Each result gives an ID, a one-line reason it matches, and when it was checked. Pass the ID to headlesson_get with sections ["lesson","gotchas"] to get the steps (install, check, first task) with their recorded test result (most were run by an agent; a few are untested) and known failure conditions, such as a tool that exits 0 with empty or wrong output. Filter or compare with axes such as auth, pricing, license and remote_mcp (where, axes, ids). Curated records come first. If none match, or include:["registry"] is set, one public word from the query is looked up in the Official MCP Registry; those listings are unverified (what is sent is described on the query field).

Discovered
headlesson_whats_new

List dated changes in agent tools and standards (new tools, renames, deprecations, breaking changes, new standards) since a date, optionally by kind or affected record. Useful for checking what changed after your training data. Public source URLs are kept; private sources appear as labels.
