7 private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound paths in this server alone. Denying 1 outbound tool breaks every one: `mcp__plith__rigor_execute`.

## Changes things (12)

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

### `burnrate_estimate`

- 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
Before executing a multi-step agent plan, estimate the total LLM cost. Returns per-step breakdown and optimization suggestions. If the estimate exceeds your budget, pipe the same plan into burnrate_optimize. Costs 1 credit.
```

### `burnrate_optimize`

- The description's first verb is "get": a word for reading.
- The server marks it as not read-only (readOnlyHint: false).
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get a cheaper equivalent plan by substituting models with lower-cost alternatives. Call after burnrate_estimate if the estimated cost exceeds your budget. Returns the optimized plan with substituted models, new per-step costs, total savings, and whether the target_budget is met. Optionally set target_budget to constrain the optimization. Costs 1 credit.
```

### `burnrate_track`

- The description's first verb is "log": a word for reading.
- The server marks it as not read-only (readOnlyHint: false).
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Log the actual cost of an LLM call after execution. Call this after every LLM request to build calibration data that improves burnrate_estimate accuracy over time. Free — no credits charged. Returns the recorded cost entry with computed margin versus the prior estimate when one exists for this model and token range.
```

### `dedupq_check`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Before executing any LLM task, check if an identical or semantically similar task has already been completed. Returns cached result on hit, saving one LLM call. On a miss, execute your task and call dedupq_complete to cache the result for future hits. Costs 1 credit.
```

### `dedupq_complete`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
After executing a task, store the result so future identical or similar tasks return a cache hit via dedupq_check. Costs 2 credits.
```

### `guardrail_check`

- The description's first verb is "evaluate": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Evaluate a proposed agent action against your governance policies. Returns allow or deny with the matched policy reason. Requires at least one active policy created via guardrail_create_policy. Deterministic rule evaluation — no LLM. Costs 1 credit.
```

### `guardrail_create_policy`

- The name "guardrail_create_policy" says "create": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Create a persistent governance policy that guardrail_check evaluates on every subsequent call. Define rules using and/or/not operators over action types, resource patterns, and budget thresholds. Call this before using guardrail_check — checks require at least one active policy. Policies persist until explicitly deleted. Duplicate policy names return an error. Returns the created policy with its ID and active status.
```

### `pitfalldb_query`

- The name "pitfalldb_query" says "query": a word for reading.
- The server marks it as not read-only (readOnlyHint: false).
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Check for known failure patterns before executing a task type. Returns pitfalls with severity, fix suggestions, and confidence scores. After your agent runs, submit failures via pitfalldb_report so others benefit. Costs 2 credits.
```

### `pitfalldb_report`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Report an agent failure. PII-scrubbed before storage. Linked to existing pitfalls if similar. Free — no credits charged.
```

### `qualitygate_validate`

- The name "qualitygate_validate" says "validate": a word for reading.
- The server marks it as not read-only (readOnlyHint: false).
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
After your agent generates output, validate it against your rules before shipping. Runs deterministic checks (regex, JSON schema, syntax) plus optional LLM-powered tone and factual analysis. Returns a structured verdict (pass, warn, or fail) with a 0-100 score and per-check issue details. Use qualitygate_trends to spot recurring failure patterns over time. Variable cost: 1 credit per deterministic check, 8 credits per LLM check.
```

### `rigor_execute`

- The name "rigor_execute" says "execute": a word for a change.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.delivery.webhook_url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Execute a structured workflow end-to-end. Call rigor_plan first (free) to preview the step sequence and cost estimate before committing credits. Classifies the task, selects the optimal tool sequence, and executes each step with the right LLM model. Returns a complete deliverable — solution designs, competitive analyses, governance documents, and more. Supports SSE streaming for real-time progress, webhook callback, or polling. For atomic work — classification, scoring, ranking, entity extraction, query parsing — set preferences.execution to 'direct' and declare preferences.output_contract to get validated JSON records from a single call, routed to the cheapest model that holds the schema.
```

### `rigor_plan`

- 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.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Before executing a complex task, get a structured workflow plan with per-step cost estimates. Classifies your task, selects the optimal framework sequence, and returns the full plan without executing anything. The response's allowed_modes tells you whether this plan is eligible for direct execution. Free — no credits charged.
```

## Only reads (3)

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

### `burnrate_budget`

- The description's first verb is "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get today's tracked LLM spend, per-model breakdown, projection, and budget alerts. Free — no credits charged.
```

### `rigor_status`

- The name "rigor_status" says "status": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Check the status of a running or completed Rigor workflow. Returns progress, step results, and the full deliverable when complete. Use after rigor_execute with polling delivery to retrieve results.
```

### `rigor_workflows`

- The description's first verb is "list": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The input names a folder (input.folder_id), and the tool reads: it reads files.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List and search Rigor workflows for your organization, with filtering and pagination. Returns status, progress, capacity usage, and available actions per workflow. Use to monitor workflow state, understand concurrent limit usage, identify stuck or completed workflows, and — via q — find prior work on a subject before commissioning it again. Pair a q hit with rigor_status to read that workflow's deliverable.
```
