## 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__ivf-cost-data__find_ivf_clinic_prices` |
| 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 `ivf_grants_open_now` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "ivf_grants_open_now" 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 "ivf_grants_open_now" says "open": a word for a change.
```


## Changes things (4)

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

### `employer_ivf_coverage`

- 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
Whether a US employer's own benefit documents say it covers IVF or fertility treatment, with the dollar or cycle limit, who runs the benefit, and a verbatim quote and link to the document. Covers the large employers IVFcost.co has read; says so when an employer publishes nothing.
```

### `estimate_ivf_cost`

- 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 US IVF cost estimate built only from cited line items (the base cycle, medications, anesthesia, embryo freezing, a frozen transfer, genetic testing and other add-ons), with a low, typical and high figure per cycle and for several cycles, and the source of each line.
```

### `ivf_grants_open_now`

- The name "ivf_grants_open_now" 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
US IVF and fertility grant programs that take applications today, open year-round, or open soon, each with its award, application fee, who can apply and its current window and deadline as the program posts it. Optionally only grants open to residents of one state.
```

### `ivf_insurance_rules`

- 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
Whether a US state's law requires health plans to cover IVF, infertility treatment or fertility preservation, what the law requires as RESOLVE summarizes it, the statute, and which plans a state law cannot reach (self-funded employer plans).
```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `find_ivf_clinic_prices`

- The name "find_ivf_clinic_prices" says "find": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "post": it reads posts, which other people can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
The self-pay IVF cycle prices that US fertility clinics post on their own websites, for one state (optionally one city), with what each price includes, the clinic's own page as the source, and the date it was read. Clinics are listed by name, not ranked. Many clinics post no price; the answer says how many do.
```

## Claude Code permissions
