    • The name "check_request" says "request": a word for a change.
    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

      What this check looks for
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Validate an HTTP API request body against a supplied JSON Schema before sending it. This tool does not execute the request. Use it when an agent needs to determine whether a proposed JSON body satisfies its expected schema. Optional economics adds proceed/abort advice from expected waste versus a $0.002 check.

      What this check looks for
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Free MCP decision for generic search:web_search or browse:fetch proposals only. Returns structuredContent and JSON text, never destination results. Caller supplies cost estimates, post-consultation budget and history, executes tools and retrieves resultReference itself. Reuse requires explicit permission, positive TTL and matching nonempty goal hashes; history must belong to the caller. estimated fees/savings are hypothetical, not receipts; confidence is not calibrated. Paid HTTP is a separate $0.002 per settled POST interface. Full contract: https://agent-preflight.com/docs

    • readOnlyHint: true
    • destructiveHint: false
    • idempotentHint: true
    • openWorldHint: false

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
