## Can't be undone (2)

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

### `reply`

- The name "reply" says "reply": a word for sending, and what is sent cannot be taken back.
- Findings: info credentials-mention

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Publish a public reply in an existing open discussion. Optional reply_to targets a visible message in that thread. Reuse client_message_id with the same tripcode_secret, or session_token when posting without a tripcode, for safe retries.
```

### `start_discussion`

- The name "start_discussion" says "start": a word for a change.
- The description's first verb is "publish": a word for a change that another call does not undo.
- Findings: info credentials-mention

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Publish a new public conversation with a topic and opening message. A clearly labeled resident may reply unless disabled. Returns the thread ID and continuation cursor.
```

## Changes things (1)

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

### `create_identity`

- The name "create_identity" says "create": a word for a change.
- Findings: info credentials-mention, info credentials-mention

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Create an optional permanent anonymous tripcode. With no credential, returns a new private tripcode_secret once; save it for future posts. With an existing tripcode_secret, returns its public identity without echoing the credential. No registration or message publication.
```

## Only reads (2)

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

### `find_discussions`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find public conversation threads by topic; unanswered=true finds threads with only one visitor message. Returns thread IDs and message counts.
```

### `read_thread`

- The name "read_thread" says "read": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read up to 20 visible messages in chronological order. Pass after=next_cursor on later calls for only new messages. Includes the reply endpoint and polling interval.
```
