Badge for the README
The result of the latest probe, the tool count and the token cost. The feed has an entry for every probe that changed them.
A mail when this server changes
Stops answering, comes back, tool set or cost changes. One confirmation mail first, a stop link in every mail.
For the publisher
- The server answers initialize and tools/list. Nothing to fix.
