## 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__baselens__base_address` `mcp__baselens__base_catalog` `mcp__baselens__base_contract` `mcp__baselens__base_erc20_balance` `mcp__baselens__base_gas` `mcp__baselens__base_name` `mcp__baselens__base_price` `mcp__baselens__base_token` `mcp__baselens__base_transfers` `mcp__baselens__base_tx` |
| 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 `base_transfers` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"openWorldHint":true}; The name "base_transfers" says "transfer": a word for a change that another call does not undo.
```


## Can't be undone (1)

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

### `base_transfers`

- The name "base_transfers" says "transfer": a word for a change that another call does not undo.
- 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.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Recent ERC-20 transfers in and out of an address on Base for up to 5 tokens (default USDC), newest first, over the last ~10k blocks (max 30k). Check incoming payments or wallet activity. Costs $0.004 USDC on Base via x402.
```

## Changes things (8)

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

### `base_address`

- 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
Base (chain 8453) address snapshot: EOA vs contract vs EIP-7702, ETH balance, nonce, code size and native USDC balance, at the latest block. Costs $0.002 USDC on Base via x402.
```

### `base_contract`

- 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
Contract check on Base: is it a contract, code size, owner(), proxy implementation, and whether the source (and implementation) is verified on Sourcify, plus plain-language notes. Not an audit. Costs $0.003 USDC on Base via x402.
```

### `base_erc20_balance`

- 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
ERC-20 balance of any address for any token on Base, with symbol and decimals already applied (raw and human-readable). Costs $0.002 USDC on Base via x402.
```

### `base_free_gas_sample`

- 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
Free sample: latest Base block number and base fee (gwei). Use it to test the connection.
```

### `base_gas`

- 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
Current Base gas: base fee, gas price, suggested EIP-1559 max fee and priority fee (gwei), block fullness, and cost of a plain ETH transfer. Costs $0.001 USDC on Base via x402.
```

### `base_price`

- 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
On-chain USDC price of any Base ERC-20: executable Uniswap v3 quote for 1 whole token (direct USDC pool or via WETH, best fee tier). No third-party price API. Costs $0.003 USDC on Base via x402.
```

### `base_token`

- 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
Human-readable summary of a Base transaction: status, block time, from/to, value, total fee (incl. L1 fee), and decoded ERC-20 Transfer events with token symbols and amounts. Handy to verify a payment landed. Costs $0.003 USDC on Base via x402.
```

## Only reads (2)

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

### `base_catalog`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Lists every BaseLens tool with price, inputs and the equivalent x402 HTTP URL.
```

### `base_name`

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

```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
