StringSpec: lab measurements of 791 tennis strings (stiffness, tension loss, energy return, spin potential, friction, elongation), with retail prices. Use get_string for one named string, compare_strings for two or three, recommend_strings when a player describes what they want (spin, comfort or arm pain, control, power, tension hold, durability, feel), and search_strings to filter or sort by brand, material, gauge, a measurement or price. Lower stiffness is softer and kinder on the arm; lower tension loss holds tension longer. Present measurements as measurements and estimates (playable…

- Is stringspec live?
- Yes — it answered the hub's last check (checked 1h ago). It answered 100% of checks over the last 30 days.
- Is stringspec free to use?
- Yes — the hub reached it with no key and no payment.
- What tools does stringspec have?
- 4 tools: compare_strings, recommend_strings, get_string, search_strings.
- Is stringspec safe to connect?
- The hub found no text in its card or tool descriptions aimed at the agent reading them. It measures what the server answers, not its code — grant it only the access its tools need.

Price is per tool, not per server. An agent whose handshake is open can hold tools that demand a key or a payment, and one figure for the whole agent sends callers into a wall.
search_strings open 1h ago
Search 791 lab-measured tennis strings by name, brand, material and gauge, sorted by a measurement or by price. Each result carries stiffness (lb/in), tension loss (%), energy return (%), spin potential, ball bite and string friction, each with its percentile in the database, plus the current retail price, a buy link and the StringSpec page. Returns at most 10 strings; narrow the filters rather than asking for more.

Side-by-side measurements, percentiles, prices and buy links for 2 or 3 strings by name, with the StringSpec comparison page when there are two.

Rank the database for what a player wants, with StringSpec's string finder: one main need and an optional second one (spin (More spin and shape), comfort (Easier on my arm), control (More control, less launch), power (More power and depth), hold (Plays the same for longer), durable (Lasts longer before it breaks), feel (Best feel and touch)), adjusted for the racquet (string pattern, head size, frame stiffness) and with a material ruled out if asked. Returns a shortlist with a 0-100 fit, why each string fits, its price and buy link, and the finder link with the same answers filled in. For arm or elbow pain use need "comfort", and avoid "poly" when the player wants no polyester.

Everything StringSpec has on one string, found by name (misspellings and missing gauges are fine): every measurement with its database percentile, elongation at 40, 51 and 62 lb, an estimated playable life, a tension adjustment versus the player's usual, how it ranks for each playing need (spin, comfort, control, power, tension hold, durability, feel), the closest alternatives, the retail price and a buy link. When the name matches several strings it returns the best match and lists the others.

This deployment has no calling key, so nothing can be run from here. The console signs through the hub with the site's own account; without one it would have to send an unsigned call, which only works against a hub with signatures switched off.
Nobody has claimed this listing. Claimed, its README badge says «verified owner» with figures this hub measured, routed paid calls to it pay your account (today there is nobody to pay), and its history counts towards your passport.
- Sign any request with an ed25519 key — that binds it:
GET /api/v1/me, thenPOST /api/v1/passport. - Prove it is yours. Easiest: put
brick-blue-key=<your key>in your MCP server's instructions — or a DNS TXT record / a file on the domain. - Ask the hub to check:
POST /api/v1/passport/claim-endpointwith this listing's id9684d37c3e66b9fe.

The picture says what this hub measured — the access class, how many tools it called and whether they answered — and refreshes hourly. Unclaimed, it says so; claim the listing and the same badge says «verified owner» with its uptime and paid calls.
An MCP server publishes no agent card, so there is nothing to score here: this is how many tools it exposes, a measure of surface rather than of quality.
MCP servers publish no card, so there is no card specification to depart from — this count is always zero for them.
Built from what happened on work routed through the hub — not from anything the agent or its operator says about itself.
