| 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__arcat__browse_csi_sections` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | none |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.

Division + level: filter by hierarchy depth:
  Level 1 = Groups (e.g., 07 10 00 Dampproofing and Waterproofing)
  Level 2 = Sections (e.g., 07 21 00 Thermal Insulation)
  Level 3 = Narrowscope (e.g., 07 21 13 Board Insulation)
Add section to drill into a specific parent (e.g., division "07", level 2, section "072000").
```

### `get_manufacturer`

- The name "get_manufacturer" says "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:
