## 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.


## Changes things (2)

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

### `business`

- 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
One business that confirmed its facts at INITE, by its INITE slug (the name before .inite.ai) or its domain: what it does, how to reach it, its services with prices as confirmed, hours and whether it is open now, its locations, its company facts server (MCP and A2A) and whether it takes contact or booking requests from agents there. INITE Directory covers businesses whose owners confirmed their facts at INITE and proved their domain; the INITE Atlas is AI tools and software scored by INITE's own measurement (match_tools, atlas_lookup on the Atlas server) - use it, not this, for which AI tool or app to use. Free, no account.
```

### `inite_connect`

- 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
INITE's MCP servers and how to add each to this client: INITE Atlas and INITE Atlas Owners (signed in: add a tool, its card, premium), INITE Visibility and its signed-in door (your audits, a licence), INITE and its signed-in door (your account, Local Start), INITE Directory (businesses that confirmed their own facts). Call it when the person wants something this server does not do; give `for` to get the one server that does it. Returns the URL, the Claude Code command, Cursor and VS Code install links, and the custom-connector step for claude.ai and ChatGPT.
```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `find_business`

- The name "find_business" says "find": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Businesses that confirmed their own facts at INITE, found by what they do and where: a kind of business or the service wanted, in English, Russian, Portuguese or Spanish ("a dentist in Lisbon", "кафе в Москве", "advogado trabalhista São Paulo"), with an optional city, country and language. Each answer gives the business's name, what it does in its own words, its city, its first services with prices exactly as the business confirmed them, its site, and its company facts server (MCP and A2A) to ask for the rest - hours, every service, questions and answers - or to send it a request where it takes them. INITE Directory covers businesses whose owners confirmed their facts at INITE and proved their domain; the INITE Atlas is AI tools and software scored by INITE's own measurement (match_tools, atlas_lookup on the Atlas server) - use it, not this, for which AI tool or app to use. Ordered by how well the words match and how complete the confirmed facts are; no business can pay for a place. Free, no account.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__directory__find_business"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__directory__business",
      "mcp__directory__inite_connect"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

- **warn** Tools that change things, listed to anyone ([unauth-remote-writes](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#unauth-remote-writes))

```untrusted-server-text
The endpoint served tools/list without credentials, and the list has 2 tools that change things (2 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://inite.ai/api/mcp/directory: tools/list returned 3 tools to an anonymous client, including business (write), inite_connect (write)
```
