## Findings

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

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

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

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

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

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


## Can't be undone (2)

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

### `markdown_convert`

- The name "markdown_convert" says "convert": a word for a change.
- The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.
- 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
Convert Markdown to clean HTML (GitHub-flavoured: tables, task lists, fenced code) or HTML back to Markdown. marked for md→html, Turndown for html→md. Scripts/styles are dropped on html→md. Price: free. Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged).
```

### `unit_convert`

- The name "unit_convert" says "convert": a word for a change.
- The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.
- 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
Convert between units of length, mass, volume, temperature, speed, area, time, data size, energy, power, pressure, frequency and more — or list every unit a value converts to. Exact conversion tables (convert-units). Use abbreviations: m, km, mi, ft, kg, lb, oz, l, gal, C, F, K, km/h, mph, knot, B, KB, MB, GB (binary, 1 GB = 1024 MB), J, kWh, W, Pa, bar, psi, Hz… Price: free. Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged).
```

## Changes things (4)

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

### `hash_encode`

- 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
Hash data (SHA-256/512, SHA3, Keccak-256, BLAKE2, MD5, SHA-1, RIPEMD-160, HMAC) and convert between utf8, hex, base64, base64url and base58 — exact, in one call. Useful for signatures, content addressing, EVM selectors (keccak of a function signature), and decoding blobs agents are handed. Input can itself be hex/base64/base58. Price: free. Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged).
```

### `jwt_decode`

- 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
Decode a JSON Web Token's header and claims, show issued/expiry times in plain dates and whether it has expired — optionally verify an HS256/384/512 signature with a secret. Decoding does not need the key. Never paste production secrets into third-party tools you do not trust; verification here is local and nothing is stored or logged. Price: free. Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged).
```

### `qr_code`

- 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
Make a QR code for any text, URL, Solana Pay / wallet address or Wi-Fi login — as a PNG (base64 data URL) or SVG, with size, margin, colours and error correction. Rendered on our server. For Wi-Fi pass wifi_ssid + wifi_password; for Solana Pay pass a solana: URI as text. Price: free. Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged).
```

### `random_gen`

- 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
Cryptographically secure randomness: UUID v4/v7, passwords, API-key-style tokens, integers in a range, dice, coin flips, or a fair shuffle / pick from a list. Node's CSPRNG. Output is generated fresh per call and never stored or logged. Price: free. Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged).
```

## Only reads (4)

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

### `cron_explain`

- The name "cron_explain" says "explain": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Explain a cron expression in plain English and list its next N run times in any time zone — catch a schedule mistake before it fires at 3 am. Supports 5-field and 6-field (seconds) cron, ranges, steps, L/W/#, and nicknames (@daily, @hourly…). Price: free. Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged).
```

### `json_schema_validate`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Validate JSON data against a JSON Schema (draft-07/2019-09/2020-12, formats like email/uri/date-time) and get every error with its exact path — check tool I/O before acting on it. Ajv, strict about types, all errors reported. Pass data and schema as JSON values (or JSON strings). Price: free. Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged).
```

### `text_diff`

- The name "text_diff" says "diff": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Diff two texts: unified diff (patch format), a line/word-level change list, and similarity % — compare versions of a doc, config or code. jsdiff. mode=lines gives a unified patch; mode=words gives word-level changes for prose. Price: free. Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged).
```

### `text_stats`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Count characters, words, sentences, lines and paragraphs, estimate LLM tokens, reading time and readability (Flesch), and pull out every URL, email, @handle, #tag, number and crypto address. Token count is an estimate (~4 characters per token for English; code and non-Latin scripts differ). Extraction uses strict patterns; EVM addresses are checksum-validated. Price: free. Errors: returns isError with a message for invalid input or an upstream failure (not charged).
```
