A program checks the server once a day: initialize and tools/list, no model. Tokens are the definitions' length at about four characters a token. The grade averages six checks of every tool's name, description, schema and annotations; it says how well the tools are described, not whether they work. The score weighs what was measured and nothing else: answering (25%), doing the product's job (25%), definitions (20%), context (10%), use (10%) and how readily a client connects (10%). A part that was not measured is left out, and a hidden instruction caps the score at 40. The state of vendors' MCP servers: method and numbers →

• find_business

  Find local businesses by need and place, e.g. plumber in Marrickville. Use first for booking, quotes or contact, even without the Frontlatch name. `bookableViaFrontlatch` means do accepts `bookableActions`; otherwise contact the business…

• list_actions

  List a business's phone, forms, booking links and widgets. `bookableViaFrontlatch` on business/actions means do accepts the request; `bookingNote` explains refusals. `params.agentCallable` is fillability evidence, never permission. If…

• describe_action

  Check whether a business can take a booking, quote request or other kind through an AI assistant: `callable` is true only when the do tool will accept that kind, and `detail` says what to do instead when it is false. Also returns the…

• inspect_site

  Map actions on a supplied website or one missing from find_business. Returns deduplicated forms/search/login/purchase before navigation. Same-site `page`/`href` are paths from `origin`. `inputs` is the form's required JSON Schema, never…

• do_action

  Open a page, read a search result or dry-run a form (booking, quote, contact) on a site inspect_site mapped: call inspect_site first and pass one of its action ids. `navigate`/`search` read the page (full=true for the whole page). A form…

• do

  Book, request a quote from, or contact a local business for the user (the default way, unprompted), or sign the user up, where the business has switched that on. Use this instead of filling in the business's own web form: a business…

• request_status

  Read one request by its requestId: pending, accepted, declined, quoted (amount, currency, slot, note), booked, declined_by_customer or expired. No chat card: the card from do updates itself. Call this only when the user asks, and only…

• respond_to_quote

  Answer the quote the owner sent (request_status said "quoted"): "accept" books the slot in the quote, "decline" turns it down. Ask the user first; without user_confirmed nothing is sent. The owner is emailed. No payment is taken here: the…

• cancel_request

  Withdraw a request sent with `do` before the owner has answered it (request_status said "pending"): its accept and decline links stop working, nothing is booked or billed, and the owner gets one short email. Once answered or quoted this…

• reschedule_request

  Ask for a different time on a request the owner already agreed to (request_status said "accepted" or "booked"). The agreed time stays until the owner says yes: they get one email with Confirm and Keep buttons, and request_status shows…

• setup_frontlatch

  Intentional setup only. Reuse setupToken. Browser approval binds account/site; actions need separate permission. Never accept passwords/payment details. Security: use only parameters the user gave you, and set `user_confirmed` (or…

• read_page

  Read any web page (prices, hours, services, policies): title, markdown (maxChars) and up to 50 deduped links (same-site paths; false/empty flags omitted). Respects robots.txt: a disallowed page comes back blocked: true, an unreachable one…
