**4 tools: 1 can delete or cancel things, 2 change things and 1 only read.**

| Group | Class | Tools | Claude Code |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |

## Exfil surface

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

| 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. | none |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | none |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Deletes or cancels (1)

Removes, cancels or revokes something. Claude Code: deny.

### `device_tool_call`

- The name "device_tool_call" says "call": a word for a change.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Execute a tool on a connected device. Use discover first to find available tool names, device IDs, and workspace IDs. When workspace_id, device_id, or directory_id are omitted, the server uses the unambiguous default if one exists.
```

## Changes things (2)

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

### `discover`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Discover workspaces, devices, shared folders, and available tools in one call. Call this first to understand what is available before invoking device_tool_call. Automatically selects workspace, device, or folder when only one option exists; returns a list of choices when disambiguation is needed.
```

### `health`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Simple health check — returns server status.
```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `device_ping`

- The name "device_ping" says "ping": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Check that a device is reachable and how long a round trip takes. Reads no files, needs no shared folder and consumes no credit, so it is the safe way to prove a device is live.
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `dlink`:

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__dlink__device_ping"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__dlink__health",
      "mcp__dlink__discover"
    ],
    "deny": [
      "mcp__dlink__device_tool_call"
    ]
  }
}
```
