### Description (declared)

# mcp-scoring-engine

A standalone scoring engine for evaluating the quality of [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) servers. Pure Python, no framework dependencies — just dataclasses, scoring logic, and network probes.

Used in production by [MCP Scoreboard](https://mcpscoreboard.com) to grade thousands of MCP servers.

## Installation

```bash
pip install mcp-scoring-engine
```

## Quick Start

### Score a server from its GitHub repo (static analysis)

```python
from mcp_scoring_engine import ServerInfo, analyze_repo, compute_score

server = ServerInfo(
    name="my-mcp-server",
    description="A tool server for doing useful things",
    repo_url="https://github.com/owner/my-mcp-server",
)

static = analyze_repo(server.repo_url)
result = compute_score(server, static_result=static)

print(result.composite_score)  # 0–100
print(result.grade)            # "A+", "B", "D", etc.
print(result.score_type)       # "partial" (1 tier) or "full" (2+ tiers)
```

### Probe a running server

```python
from mcp_scoring_engine import (
    ServerInfo, probe_server, deep_probe_server, compute_score
)

# Fast health check (~10s) — connection, initialize, ping
fast = probe_server("https://my-server.example.com/mcp")
print(fast.is_reachable, fast.connection_ms)

# Deep protocol probe (~30s) — schema validation, error handling, fuzz testing
deep = deep_probe_server("https://my-server.example.com/mcp")
print(deep.tools_count, deep.schema_valid, deep.fuzz_score)

# Score with the probe results
server = ServerInfo(name="my-server", description="...", repo_url="...")
static = analyze_repo(server.repo_url)
result = compute_score(server, static_result=static, deep_probe=deep)
print(result.grade)
```

### Probe a stdio server

```python
from mcp_scoring_engine import probe_server_stdio, deep_probe_server_stdio

fast = probe_server_stdio(["npx", "-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-memory"])
deep = deep_probe_server_stdio(["python", "-m", "my_mcp_server"])
```
