What the Kweku Anansi Herbarium MCP server can do

The Kweku Anansi Herbarium MCP server is published by kwekuanansi.ai, a domain the MCP Registry verified. It has 3 tools. It can create or change data (2 tools: herbarium.card and herbarium.about), but cannot delete data. 1 tool only reads.

None of its tools reads private data, brings in text other people write, or sends data out.

None of the fixed checks matched anything in its tool definitions. That is not a safety guarantee.

Its remote endpoint lists its tools without sign-in.

Last scanned Nov 11, 2026, version 1.0.0.

Grouped by what each tool does, most consequential first. Open one for its reasons and full description; descriptions are the publisher's own words.

    Why it is in this group

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

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Use this when someone asks what the Kweku Anansi herbarium is, how many plants it holds, where its records come from or what it leaves out. Do not use it to look up a plant: use herbarium.find or herbarium.card.

    Why it is in this group

    • 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
    Use this when someone asks what is recorded about one named plant of West or Central Africa: its names, family, warnings, the uses a collector or a desk note recorded, and how many notes are held back. Give the warnings first and say where each row comes from. Do not use it to recommend a remedy, and do not add an amount, how often, how long or a way to prepare one: the herbarium holds such notes back, and a use on record is not evidence that it works or that it is safe.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "herbarium.find" says "find": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Use this when someone names a plant of West or Central Africa by its scientific name or a common name (for example "Azadirachta indica", "sobolo" or "prekese") and you need to know whether the Kweku Anansi herbarium has a card for it. It returns the matching cards with family and rank, and says plainly when a plant is not in the herbarium yet. Do not use it to identify a plant from a description or a photograph, or for a plant from outside Africa: it matches names as written, and a plant that is not found may be there under another name.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: true
    • destructiveHint: false
    • openWorldHint: false

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.

Exfil surface

Which tools read private data, which read text someone else can write, and which can send data out. One of each is a path a prompt injection can use.

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

Reads private data0
Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories.
Reads text others write0
Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments.
Can send data out0
Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL.

Other servers in the same agent add their own tools to these paths. Audit your whole setup to see them together.

Remote posture

  • WarnThe whole server

    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.

    Matched text

    https://kwekuanansi.ai/mcp/herbarium: tools/list returned 3 tools to an anonymous client, including herbarium.card (write), herbarium.about (write)

    What this check looks for

Findings

Matches of fixed checks, with the text they matched.

No check matched anything in these tool definitions. That is not a safety guarantee.

History

Changes to its tool definitions and to its remote endpoint, newest first.

No change seen yet. Its tools are rescanned every day, and a remote endpoint is looked at once a week.

All changes to this server

Run in a terminal.

Claude Code permissions

Allow the reads, ask before a change or a way out, deny the deletes. Paste into .claude/settings.json.

.claude/settings.json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__herbarium__herbarium_find"

      "mcp__herbarium__herbarium_about"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}

Tools that only read are allowed, tools that change things ask first, tools that delete or cancel are denied. A read that can send data out (it takes a URL, say) asks first too. It assumes the server is installed as herbarium. Review it before you use it.

Pin

Keep the decision: fail CI when the tools change, follow every change, or show a badge.

Pin in CI

Fail a build when the tools you reviewed are not the tools the server serves today.
