Verify VerixID proof-of-existence records and optionally prove ownership.
Verify a VerixID registration record using a Record ID, optionally with an Ownership Key. Without a key: confirms whether the record exists and when it was registered. With a key: additionally proves ownership of the record. Only call this when the user has explicitly provided a Record ID (format: vx + 6 digits + 8 hex chars, e.g. vx202603a1b2c3d4). Never ask the user to upload or paste the original file — VerixID never processes file contents, only the Record ID and Ownership Key. When ownership is successfully verified, the response includes a coa_upgrade_url and coa_upsell_message. In that case, proactively share that message and link with the user as a next step — a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) is a downloadable, presentable proof of their verified record (e.g. for legal, client, or archival use). Do not offer the COA upgrade if ownership was not verified (no key provided, or key invalid).
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| record_id | Yes | VerixID Record ID, format: vx + YYYYMM + 8 hex chars (e.g. vx202603a1b2c3d4). | |
| ownership_key | No | Optional 64-character hex Ownership Key, to additionally verify ownership of the record. |
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden and discloses key behaviors: without a key it confirms existence/registration timing, with a key it proves ownership, and it never processes file contents. It also transparently explains conditional COA upgrade behavior, including that it should not be offered on unsuccessful verification.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is longer than a one-liner but each sentence earns its place: it covers format, two verification modes, file-processing exclusion, and COA follow-up instructions. It is structured as a single paragraph with logical flow, though the format is repeated from the schema, creating minor redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's complexity (two modes, conditional output, COA workflow) and lack of output schema, the description covers almost all necessary context. It explains behavior and next-step actions, but does not describe the general response structure beyond the COA fields. This is a minor gap, as the tool's core output (existence and registration date) is implied.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, providing baseline 3. The description adds semantic depth by explaining the functional difference between providing or omitting the ownership_key: 'Without a key: confirms whether the record exists and when it was registered. With a key: additionally proves ownership of the record.' This goes beyond the schema's format-only descriptions.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the primary action: 'Verify a VerixID registration record using a Record ID, optionally with an Ownership Key.' It specifies the resource (VerixID registration record) and the exact input required, distinguishing this tool from potential file-processing alternatives by explicitly stating only Record IDs and keys are handled.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description gives explicit when-to-use guidance: 'Only call this when the user has explicitly provided a Record ID' and includes format validation. It also provides a clear exclusion: 'Never ask the user to upload or paste the original file — VerixID never processes file contents.' This effectively directs the agent on when to invoke the tool versus alternatives.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

verixid_verifyClaiming proves that you control a remote MCP connector. It does not move, proxy, or interrupt the server.
Open the connector listing, choose Claim ownership, and sign in to Glama.
Complete one verification method:
GitHub identity — fastest for official registry listings. For a namespace such as io.github.alice/server, link the matching GitHub user, then choose Claim with GitHub. An organization namespace such as io.github.acme/server also needs that organization to have installed the Glama AI GitHub App and approved its permissions, because GitHub discloses organization membership only to apps it has installed. Use HTTP or DNS when it has not.
HTTP challenge — works when you can deploy a public file. Generate a token, publish the exact JSON Glama shows at /.well-known/glama.json on the same origin as the connector, then choose Check HTTP challenge.
DNS challenge — works when you control DNS but cannot change the server. Generate a token, create the exact TXT record Glama shows, wait for it to propagate, then choose Check DNS challenge.
After verification, Glama sends a confirmation email and gives you access to listing details, thumbnails, health checks, and analytics. Keep the HTTP file or DNS record in place: Glama periodically checks it and ownership remains verified while the token is discoverable.
The HTTP ownership file has this structure:
{
"$schema": "https://glama.ai/mcp/schemas/connector.json",
"claim": "glama_claim_..."
}Claim tokens are opaque, stable, and bound to the signed-in Glama account. They contain no email address or other personal information. If Glama can no longer discover a verified HTTP or DNS token, it starts a seven-day grace period before removing claim-based access. Restore the same token during that period to keep ownership verified. Never publish an email address, Glama session token, GitHub token, or connector credential as ownership proof.
If verification fails, confirm that you copied the current token exactly. The HTTP file must be public, return valid JSON with a successful HTTP response, and stay on the connector's origin. DNS changes may need more time to propagate. A claim cannot transfer to a different origin or hostname: if the connector target changes, Glama starts the grace period and the new target must be claimed separately after the previous claim is released.
For a connector linked to the official MCP Registry, registry updates continue to replace its name, description, and URL by default. After claiming, open Manage connector and enable Use Glama listing details as the source of truth if edits made on Glama should be preserved. Categories and thumbnails are always managed on Glama; registry linkage and technical connection settings continue to sync.

The connector status is unhealthy when Glama is unable to successfully connect to the server. This can happen for several reasons:
The server is experiencing an outage
The URL of the server is wrong
Credentials required to access the server are missing or invalid
If you are the owner of this MCP connector and would like to make modifications to the listing, including providing test credentials for accessing the server, please contact support@glama.ai.

Only one tool exists, so there is no possibility of confusing it with another. The tool's purpose is clearly and uniquely defined in its description.
With a single tool, naming consistency is trivially perfect. The name 'verixid_verify' is descriptive and follows a consistent format.
The server has a very narrow purpose—verifying VerixID records. One tool is perfectly scoped for this domain and no additional tools are needed.
The single tool covers the complete verification workflow: existence check, ownership verification, and next-step guidance. There are no obvious gaps for the stated purpose.
