Unmeasured means there is not enough evidence to decide. How these checks work

Inspect individual checks 22 recorded

Core

  • Pass
    Reachable

    Latest probe returned HTTP 200 in 132 ms.

  • Pass
    Valid handshake

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

  • Pass
    Lists tools

    tools/list returned 10 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 132 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 132 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.

  • Fail
    Parameters documented

    13 of 28 parameters have a description (46%). 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 2026-11-01T18:58:45.87442Z, within 180 days.

  • Not measured
    Open-source licence

    No GitHub repository to ask about a licence.

Capabilities

Tools 10

calculate_metric

Evaluate a formula entry, such as OEE, with your inputs. Get the variable symbols from get_entry first.

Discovered
check_limits

Check planned payload, reach, TCP speed, repeatability, ambient temperature or IP rating against a robot's published limits. Returns pass/fail/unknown per check with the limit and its sources. Call this before generating code that moves real hardware. Requires an API key.

Discovered
compare

Align 2 to 5 entries of the same type into one table of numeric spec values with units, plus each entry's verification status and sources. Requires an API key.

Discovered
find_hardware

Find hardware matching numeric limits, manufacturer, controller and supported protocols, e.g. cobots with payload >= 10 kg that speak PROFINET.

Discovered
get_entry

Return the full structured record for one id: typed spec values, sources and verification status.

Discovered
get_related

List entries connected to an id, in both directions: a robot's manufacturer, controllers and protocols, a controller's robots and alarm codes, or a base model's variants.

Discovered
get_schema

Return the JSON Schema every entry of a type conforms to. Use it to validate generated configs or to build a submission.

Discovered
list_facets

Valid values, with counts, for find_hardware filters: categories, manufacturers, controllers and protocols.

Discovered
lookup_alarm

Find what a controller alarm or error code means and what to check. Accepts a full code (SRVO-062) or a prefix, optionally limited to one controller id.

Discovered
search_entries

Full-text search across hardware, controllers, protocols, standards, alarm codes, terms and manufacturers. Returns ids to pass to get_entry.
