## Exfil surface

No private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound path in this server alone: no tool is tagged private-data 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. | `mcp__esimdata__list_providers` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | none |

## Findings

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The name "compare_plans" says "compare": a word for reading.
```


## Changes things (3)

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

### `check_phone`

- 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
Check whether a phone, tablet or watch model supports eSIM, from the manufacturer's own published list (with regional exceptions, e.g. models sold in mainland China), with the source link.
```

### `compare_plans`

- The name "compare_plans" says "compare": a word for reading.
- The description's first verb is "put": 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
Put 2 to 10 plans (ids from search_plans) side by side with the same fields, in the order given, to help a traveller choose.
```

### `country_overview`

- 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
A destination at a glance: how many plans and providers, the cheapest plan, the cheapest per GB, and which mobile networks the providers say they use there.
```

## Only reads (3)

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

### `get_plan`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Everything esimdata knows about one plan (by the id search_plans returned): all countries it covers, networks, policies, the provider's own page, the buy link and its price history.
```

### `list_providers`

- The name "list_providers" says "list": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "website": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Every eSIM provider esimdata compares, with its website and whether esimdata earns a commission when a traveller buys through it (ranking never depends on it).
```

### `search_plans`

- The name "search_plans" says "search": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find travel eSIM data plans for a destination from every provider esimdata tracks, ranked neutrally by price (or price per GB, or validity). Filter by trip length, data, unlimited, needs (hotspot, 5G, phone number, top-up, no ID check) and budget. Each result has a buy_url to the provider's page and the time the price was checked.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__esimdata__search_plans",
      "mcp__esimdata__get_plan",
      "mcp__esimdata__list_providers"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__esimdata__compare_plans",
      "mcp__esimdata__country_overview",
      "mcp__esimdata__check_phone"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__esimdata__list_providers`: untrusted-input

- **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 3 tools that change things (3 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://esimdata.app/mcp: tools/list returned 6 tools to an anonymous client, including compare_plans (write), country_overview (write), check_phone (write)
```
