  NO MCP server is published by Email Verifier API. Searched the npm registry (no
  vendor-namespaced @*/mcp package), the provider's own integration and documentation pages,
  and general web search; nothing surfaced. `deployment.mode: none` is therefore the finding —
  there is neither a remote endpoint an agent could POST to today nor a stdio package a human
  could install.

  The tools below are a CANDIDATE surface DERIVED from the two operations in the provider's
  OpenAPI. They are what an MCP server for this API would expose if one existed. They are not
  a claim that the provider ships anything, and no `type: MCPServer` pointer is wired into
  apis.yml from this file — emitting one would credit the provider with an agent surface it
  does not serve.

  Auth shape for any future server: the API key travels as the `apiKey` QUERY parameter on
  every request (see authentication/email-verifier-api-authentication.yml). A query-string
  credential is a poor fit for agent deployments — it lands in proxy access logs and browser
  history — which is worth flagging to the provider ahead of any MCP work.
tools:
  - name: verify_email
    description: >-
      Run the 16-point verification engine against a single email address and return the
      deliverability verdict (status), the granular event code, a human-readable explanation,
      and the intelligence flags (disposable, role account, free service, spam-trap,
      gibberish, offensive, complainer).
    source_operation: openapi/email-verifier-api-verification-api-openapi.yml#verifyEmailGet
    input_schema_source: >-
      components/parameters/Email + components/parameters/Xml (apiKey is server-side credential,
      not an agent input)
    read_only: true
    metered: true
    metering_note: >-
      Paid events (mailboxExists, mailboxDoesNotExist, mailboxIsFull) consume one credit each.
      Free events (invalidSyntax, domainDoesNotExist, mxServerDoesNotExist, isCatchall,
      isGreylisting, transientError) do not.
  - name: verify_email_post
    description: >-
      Same verification as verify_email but submits the address in a form-encoded request body
      so it does not appear in URL strings or proxy access logs. Preferred for server-to-server
      and agent traffic.
