## Exfil surface

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

| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | `mcp__electronic-invoice__extract_invoice` |
| 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. | `mcp__electronic-invoice__convert_invoice` |

## Findings

- **warn** Annotations that disagree with the tool in `open_invoice_check` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "open_invoice_check" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"openWorldHint":false}; The name "open_invoice_check" says "open": a word for a change.
```


## Can't be undone (1)

Sends, pays, publishes or merges: once done, it cannot be taken back. Claude Code: ask.

### `convert_invoice`

- The name "convert_invoice" says "convert": a word for a change.
- The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a destination (input.to): what the tool writes goes there.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Convert an existing e-invoice from UBL to CII, CII to UBL, or XML to a ZUGFeRD/Factur-X PDF. Also accepts a ZUGFeRD/Factur-X PDF and converts its embedded XML. Validates every output and returns it only if valid. Use this for a format or container change. Do not use it to create an invoice from data (use generate_invoice), to validate only (use validate_invoice), or to extract data (use extract_invoice). Supported profiles are EN 16931 and XRechnung 3.0; other profiles return 422 unsupported_profile. B2B only. Requires the caller's own Electronic Invoice API key, sent either directly as Authorization: Bearer eia_live_... or through an OAuth 2.1 access token issued by this server. A call that reaches the API and returns 200, 400, 422 or 504 counts against the plan quota.
```

## Changes things (2)

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

### `generate_invoice`

- The name "generate_invoice" says "generate": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Create a new e-invoice file from structured JSON. Builds XRechnung UBL/CII or a ZUGFeRD/Factur-X PDF, validates the result with the same rule sets, and returns the file only if it is valid. Use this when no invoice file exists yet. Do not use it to validate an existing file (use validate_invoice) or to change an existing file's syntax (use convert_invoice). Supports invoice, credit note, corrected, partial and final invoices, prepayments, and an optional EPC payment QR page for PDF output. B2B only. Requires the caller's own Electronic Invoice API key, sent either directly as Authorization: Bearer eia_live_... or through an OAuth 2.1 access token issued by this server. A call that reaches the API and returns 200, 400, 422 or 504 counts against the plan quota.
```

### `open_invoice_check`

- The name "open_invoice_check" says "open": a word for a change.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Open an upload field in the chat where the user chooses an invoice PDF or XML file. The file then goes straight to validate_invoice without passing through the model, so a PDF is checked as a whole, including its PDF/A-3 container. Use this when the user wants a file checked and this client gives you no way to pass the file itself, as with Claude. Never type out a file as base64 and never read the XML out of a PDF instead. This tool needs no input and checks nothing by itself. Clients with a file parameter on validate_invoice should use that. B2B only.
```

## Only reads (4)

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

### `extract_invoice`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read data from an existing UBL/CII XML or ZUGFeRD/Factur-X PDF. Returns JSON business terms keyed by BT/BG numbers, CSV with one row per line, or a DATEV Buchungsstapel (EXTF). Does not validate the invoice. Use this for accounting import or data analysis. Do not use it to check validity (use validate_invoice). DATEV export has hard limits: EUR only, one invoice per file, issue date inside the fiscal year, and no booking of prepayments, rounding or Skonto. DATEV output is written to the documented layout and was not tested against a DATEV installation. B2B only. Requires the caller's own Electronic Invoice API key, sent either directly as Authorization: Bearer eia_live_... or through an OAuth 2.1 access token issued by this server. A call that reaches the API and returns 200, 400, 422 or 504 counts against the plan quota.
```

### `get_pricing_and_limits`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Explain the plans, monthly quotas, rate limits, concurrency limits, billable status codes and body size limits of the Electronic Invoice API. Works without an API key and does not call the API. B2B only. Prices and monthly quotas are published on https://electronic-invoice.app/de/api/. Use this for commercial or quota questions, not for invoice validation.
```

### `get_service_status`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Check whether the Electronic Invoice API is up and which rule set versions it currently runs. Calls GET /v1/health without an API key. Free, not billable, works without an account. B2B only. Use this before diagnosing a failing invoice call, but do not use it as proof that a specific API key or quota is valid.
```

### `validate_invoice`

- The name "validate_invoice" says "validate": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Validate an existing e-invoice file without changing it. Accepts UBL Invoice/CreditNote XML, UN/CEFACT CII XML, or a ZUGFeRD/Factur-X/XRechnung PDF. Checks EN 16931 and the XRechnung 3.0 CIUS, and returns verdict, findings and rule set versions. A PDF is also checked as a PDF/A-3 container, but only if the PDF itself is sent. Report the result of this tool; do not replace it with your own analysis of the file. Use this before sending an invoice, or to inspect a file. Do not use it to create a new invoice (use generate_invoice), to change the format (use convert_invoice), or to read accounting data (use extract_invoice). B2B only. Requires the caller's own Electronic Invoice API key, sent either directly as Authorization: Bearer eia_live_... or through an OAuth 2.1 access token issued by this server. A call that reaches the API and returns 200, 400, 422 or 504 counts against the plan quota.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__electronic-invoice__validate_invoice",
      "mcp__electronic-invoice__extract_invoice",
      "mcp__electronic-invoice__get_service_status",
      "mcp__electronic-invoice__get_pricing_and_limits"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__electronic-invoice__generate_invoice",
      "mcp__electronic-invoice__convert_invoice",
      "mcp__electronic-invoice__open_invoice_check"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__electronic-invoice__convert_invoice`: outbound
- `mcp__electronic-invoice__extract_invoice`: private-data
