A server can change after it's graded. Re-run the automated scan to refresh this report.
This grade is deterministic and reproducible: the same server surface always yields the same grade under a given algorithm version. It is a real automated assessment computed by the MCPGrade engine from what the probe actually observed — not a fabricated or opinion score. It is not a manual human pentest, so it can miss context-specific risks.
Every signal below was measured directly by the automated probe. The grade is derived only from evidence like this — nothing is assumed.
The noaa-marine-mcp-server MCP server exposes 7 tools, focused primarily on general-purpose capabilities. Its published description reads: "Query NOAA marine forecasts, buoy observations, tidal predictions, and coastal weather data". It communicates over Streamable HTTP using the 2025-06-18 protocol revision, and does not require authorization to connect. MCPGrade currently rates noaa-marine-mcp-server F — a critical issue was found and the server should not be connected as-is. Its most notable findings include "Cross-tool shadowing" and "Cross-tool shadowing". This report is a deterministic, reproducible automated assessment: the same observed surface always yields the same grade under a given algorithm version, and it is refreshed as new scans arrive and free to read — but it is not a substitute for a manual human security review. Always re-check noaa-marine-mcp-server's advertised tools, transport security, and authorization posture before connecting an autonomous agent or sharing sensitive context with it.
Add noaa-marine-mcp-server to an MCP client using the endpoint below. Review the grade and findings above before granting an autonomous agent access.

High/low tide predictions for a CO-OPS tide station over a date range. Returns time, height, and tide type (H=high, L=low) for each event when using the default hilo interval, or 6-minute interval pre
