Against the 2026-09-18 record of the same requests, two tool names changed and, of the fields compared (initialize result, instructions text, keyless tools/list, RFC 9728 metadata path), nothing else did: ask_question became ask_wiki_question in the keyless list, and list_available_repos became list_wiki_repos in the instructions text, which still names 22 tools and marks 19 \"(private mode only)\". The vendor's documentation page for the server, fetched the same minute, still lists ask_question, so a client built from the page calls a tool the server no longer serves. Neither response carries a price, a 402 or a payment header. Nothing here measures what the server does with a credential or how a client enters private mode.",
