About

This repository is a source mirror of the Faith Evidence MCP server that is part of Macaroon Network, a marketplace where AI agents discover and pay for live data and scientific computing capabilities. The Bible Evidence server itself is free and requires no payment — it exists to demonstrate the same source-labelled, falsifiable-evidence discipline the rest of the marketplace runs on.

    A3.5/5.0

    Scored across 11 tools

    Disambiguation4/5

    Most tools have distinct purposes: scripture search vs. exact lookup vs. context vs. compare vs. cross-references are clearly separated, and service tools are all distinct. However, faith_scripture_search_preview and faith_scripture_lookup could be confused by an agent when handling exact verses, and faith_service_detail vs. faith_service_evidence are close but distinct.

    Naming Consistency4/5

    All tools share the faith_ prefix, which is consistent, and most follow a verb_noun pattern. But the use of the 'preview' suffix is inconsistent (some have it, some do not), and there is singular/plural mixing in service tools (services_list vs. service_detail).

    Tool Count5/5

    With 11 tools, the set is well-scoped for a bible-evidence server covering both scripture research and Christian service browsing. Each tool serves a clear function and none feel redundant.

    Completeness4/5

    The tool surface covers the core workflows: scripture search, lookup, context, comparison, cross-references, and topic guides, plus service discovery and evidence. Minor gaps exist, such as no batch passage retrieval or a tool for user feedback, but agents can work around these without dead ends.
