## Exfil surface

No private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound path in this server alone: no tool is tagged private-data.

| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | none |
| untrusted-input | Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments. | `mcp__bot-appetit__page_history` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | `mcp__bot-appetit__page_history` `mcp__bot-appetit__request_site_scan` `mcp__bot-appetit__scan_page` |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (3)

Creates or changes something that can be changed back. Claude Code: ask.

### `leaderboard`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
The highest-scoring sites by category, from the latest Bot Appétit scan of each site's homepage: rank, host, score out of 100, grade and a link to the full report. Call it with no category to see the top of every category, or with a category id for that board. Only sites that were scored on the current rules are ranked; a site that blocked our scanner is never ranked.
```

### `request_site_scan`

- The name "request_site_scan" says "request": a word for a change.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
A whole-site scan reads a representative sample of a site and needs a person with a Bot Appétit account, so an agent cannot start one. This returns exactly what the person must do, in order. For a single page, use scan_page instead, which is free and needs no account.
```

### `scan_page`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Check one web page for AEO, SEO and performance: can a machine consume it? Returns the findings by check and the report link. If the exact page was scanned in the last 24 hours the stored result is returned at no cost; set fresh to scan again. A page that blocks our scanner is returned as blocked with no score, because it cannot pass. Free, no account needed. Always give the person the report link and say it came from Bot Appétit by Milk Moon Studio.
```

## Only reads (4)

Looks things up and changes nothing. Claude Code: allow.

### `explain_check`

- The name "explain_check" says "explain": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Explain one Bot Appétit check: what it looks at, why it matters for machines reading a page, and what good looks like. Use the id from list_checks or a report. Costs nothing and does not scan.
```

### `get_report`

- The name "get_report" says "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get a stored Bot Appétit report by scan id, the same report a person sees at botappetit.ai/r/<id>. Costs nothing and does not scan. Use it to re-read a report you were given a link to. A page that blocked our scanner is returned as blocked, with no score.
```

### `list_checks`

- The name "list_checks" says "list": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List every check Bot Appétit runs on a page, grouped by category, with the id of each. Use the id with explain_check for what a check means and what good looks like. Every check asks one question: can a machine consume this page?
```

### `page_history`

- The description's first verb is "list": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The input takes a URL (input.url), and the tool reads it: it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.
- Claude Code: ask, because it is tagged outbound.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List every stored Bot Appétit scan of one exact page, newest first, with the score at the time and how it moved since the scan before. Costs nothing and does not scan. Use it to show whether a page has improved. Blocked and failed scans are listed without a score.
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `bot-appetit`:

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__bot-appetit__get_report",
      "mcp__bot-appetit__list_checks",
      "mcp__bot-appetit__explain_check"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__bot-appetit__scan_page",
      "mcp__bot-appetit__page_history",
      "mcp__bot-appetit__request_site_scan",
      "mcp__bot-appetit__leaderboard"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

Capability tags behind the rules (a read tagged outbound is asked about):

- `mcp__bot-appetit__scan_page`: outbound
- `mcp__bot-appetit__page_history`: untrusted-input, outbound
- `mcp__bot-appetit__request_site_scan`: outbound
