What the probe found

No CORS headers for browser-based clients

A cross-origin preflight came back without Access-Control-Allow-Origin, so the endpoint is reachable from native clients only — code running in a web page is stopped by the browser before a request is ever sent.

22 tools usable without signing in

The server exposes a public surface before authorization: search, fetch, search_semantic, search_threads, get_time, get_kb_article, search_kb, get_thread_posts, search_mysql, search_elastic, get_thread, list_threads, get_post, get_user, get_forum, get_forum_updates, get_online_users, get_latest_registered_users, get_forum_statistics, search_posts, search_users, get_windows_news_posts.

Depend on this server? Leave an email and get a message when a probe records a change — a tool removed, an argument newly required, an enum narrowed. Alerts are being built; signing up is what tells us to hurry.
