    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.

    Standard auth

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