## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (2)

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

### `topic_scorer_gate`

- 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
Pass/fail check: does the text rank within the top `min_rank` categories of its target taxonomy? Returns `pass`, the target's rank and gap to #1, the taxonomy's top five, and the unused phrases to work in. Use it as a content-pipeline gate. Paid, $0.05/call; read-only and safe to retry.
```

### `topic_scorer_score`

- 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
Scores text against every category in all six taxonomies (one embedding, cosine similarity) and returns the top `per` rows per taxonomy. With `taxonomy` and `category` it also returns the target's rank, score, gap to #1, and a phrase bank split into phrases the text already uses and phrases it does not. Read the rank and the gap, not the raw percent (scores compress into a 70 to 90 band). Paid, $0.05/call; read-only and safe to retry.
```

## Only reads (3)

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

### `topic_scorer_find`

- The name "topic_scorer_find" says "find": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Finds categories whose path contains the query (case-insensitive substring), optionally within one taxonomy. Free. Returns up to `limit` hits with id and path; pass the id as `category` to the paid tools.
```

### `topic_scorer_phrases`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Returns the ranked phrase bank for one category: 1 to 4 word phrases a page squarely about that category would contain, ordered by similarity to the category. Use it to seed a brief. Paid, $0.05/call; read-only and safe to retry.
```

### `topic_scorer_taxonomies`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Lists the six taxonomies with their label and category count. Free. Call it first to pick the taxonomy for topic_scorer_find.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__topic-scorer__topic_scorer_taxonomies",
      "mcp__topic-scorer__topic_scorer_find",
      "mcp__topic-scorer__topic_scorer_phrases"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__topic-scorer__topic_scorer_score",
      "mcp__topic-scorer__topic_scorer_gate"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```
