Why the edge:
- Schema & documentation, Breakcold +63: Breakcold 90 (OpenAPI 3.1 contract at docs.breakcold.com/api/openapi.json with 70 operations, each with a description (25). llms.txt and a Markdown copy of each page, plus auth.md and an MCP server card (10). Tool descriptions say how to use them, such as `records_create` asking for every required field and a stable idempotency key and the send tools saying to send only after the user confirms (17 of 20). 84 enums and 488 required lists, with typed attribute pages for each field type (13 of 15). Every operation documents 400 to 429 responses and the error body is shown, but the spec carries only two examples (10 of 15). /api/v1, and an API changelog with dated entries and migration steps (15). 25 + 10 + 17 + 13 + 10 + 15 = 90.); Freshsales API 27 (No OpenAPI or other machine-readable spec found (0). No llms.txt or Markdown docs (0). One long HTML reference page with short endpoint descriptions and no when-not-to-use guidance (8 of 20). Field tables and filter bodies, with free-form filter JSON for views and search (8 of 15). curl examples throughout, an error format of `errors.code` and `errors.message` and a list of status codes (11 of 15). No version scheme or API changelog found (0).)
- Maintenance & community, Breakcold +55: Breakcold 60 (API changelog entry on 6 November 2026 (30). More than 60 dated entries since 8 August 2026 (20). Closed service with a public API changelog, an RSS feed, a help centre and support by email; no public issue tracker (10 of 15). The CRM MCP server is not in the official MCP registry (the registry's io.github.breakcold/inboxmcp is a separate product at inbox-mcp.com), and no official SDK exists (0). No package to check (0). 30 + 20 + 10 + 0 + 0 = 60.); Freshsales API 5 (No public API changelog or release notes for the Freshsales API found, so no last change date (0). No dated entries in the last 90 days found (0). Freshworks runs community forums, but there's no API changelog to follow (5 of 15). No official Freshsales SDK. The FDK is for marketplace apps, not API calls (0). No packages to judge (0). Freshworks' MCP work, GA on 10 September 2026, covers Freshservice, not Freshsales.)
- Agent ergonomics, Breakcold +19: Breakcold 67 (72 MCP tools (5), with `tools_search` and `capabilities_list` to find tools by capability or granted scope, and scopes that limit which tools apply (8 back). Cursor pagination, record search and a `fields` selection on record lists since 3 November (18 of 20). Errors carry a code, message, `requestId` and `retryAfterMs`, and the 4 November changelog removed stack frames from messages (17 of 20). Idempotency keys on creates, and compose and send tools return a non-sending draft by default; MCP annotations are not published (14 of 20). No official SDK; setup is one URL with OAuth (5 of 15). 13 + 18 + 17 + 14 + 5 = 67.); Freshsales API 48 (No MCP server for Freshsales. `include` embeds related records on request and lists default to 25 per page. No field selection to trim responses (10 of 25). `page` pagination, filtered views, search and filter endpoints (14 of 20). Errors carry a code and a message, with status codes documented (12 of 20). `/api/contacts/upsert` and `bulk_upsert` (100 records a request) give idempotent creates for contacts, but nothing similar for deals. `bulk_destroy` deletes in bulk (8 of 20). Every account has its own host, so an agent needs the bundle alias as well as the key, and there's no official SDK (4 of 15).)
- Security & auth, Breakcold +16: Breakcold 60 (API keys take chosen read and write scopes, an optional workspace limit and an expiry, are shown once, show activity history and can be revoked. MCP also accepts OAuth with PKCE through WorkOS AuthKit. Tokens travel in headers (30). Read-only keys are possible and message sends stay drafts until `sendMode` is set after the user confirms (17 of 20). The inbox returns email, LinkedIn, WhatsApp and Telegram text from outside parties, and no prompt-injection guidance was found (0). API key activity history is visible to the user; no organisation audit log was found (7 of 15). A vulnerability disclosure policy (3 September 2026) with reports to support@breakcold.com, no bounty, no security.txt (404) and no SOC 2 or ISO 27001 found (6 of 20). 30 + 17 + 0 + 7 + 6 = 60.); Freshsales API 44 (One per-user API key in `Authorization: Token token=<key>`, limited by that user's role and visibility. No scopes, no OAuth for the CRM API, and we found no rotation docs (13 of 30). No read-only key. Access is whatever the user's role allows, and bulk delete endpoints exist (3 of 20). Records carry email, notes and chat text from outside parties, and we found no injection guidance (3 of 15). Audit logs listed on the Enterprise plan (8 of 15). HackerOne disclosure programme, a security.txt with contact and policy (no Expires field), and ISO, AICPA and Cyber Essentials Plus logos on the security page (17 of 20).)
- Payments & pricing, Freshsales API +15: Breakcold 15 (No x402, MPP or L402 (0). Plan prices are public, and each call's cost in usage tokens is published, but the money value of a token is not (10). The 14-day trial needs a card (0). auth.md documents an agent identity endpoint that takes an identity assertion or an anonymous request followed by a claim by a person, which we read and did not call; access still needs a paid or card-backed trial account (5 of 20). 0 + 10 + 0 + 5 = 15.); Freshsales API 30 (No x402, MPP or L402 (0). Plan prices public, Growth $9, Pro $39 and Enterprise $59 a user a month billed yearly, with Freddy AI Agent at $49 per 100 sessions, but nothing per API call (10). 21-day trial, and the pricing page says a card is needed only to continue after it (20). A person signs up in a browser and copies the key from profile settings (0).)
- Reliability, Freshsales API +6: Breakcold 45 (Graded as a hosted service on the REST API and hosted MCP server. No status page is linked from the site or docs, and status.breakcold.com failed the TLS handshake (0). With no readable history the incident line scores 5. Rate limits published per organisation (600 a minute), workspace (300), identity or key (180) and route (120), for REST and MCP (15). 429 carries Retry-After and `retryAfterMs`, the docs give backoff guidance, and creates take an Idempotency-Key so retries return the original result (15). No SLA found in the services agreement summary, the pricing page or the docs (0). Neither surface is marked beta (10). 0 + 5 + 15 + 15 + 0 + 10 = 45.); Freshsales API 51 (Freshworks runs its own status page at status.freshworks.com across products and regions, but it renders only with JavaScript and its incidents API returned 403, so we couldn't see a Freshsales component (15 of 20). No readable incident history (5). 1,000 API requests an hour per account, published (15). 429 is documented, with no Retry-After or backoff guidance. Contact upsert and bulk upsert make creates safe to retry (6 of 15). No SLA found on the pricing page (0). The REST API is GA (10).)
