## Exfil surface

No private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound path in this server alone: no tool is tagged private-data.

| 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__asinrating__scrap_page` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | `mcp__asinrating__request` `mcp__asinrating__scrap_page` |

## Findings

- **warn** Annotations that disagree with the tool in `request` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "request" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"idempotentHint":true}; The name "request" says "request": a word for a change.
```


## Changes things (2)

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

### `request`

- The name "request" says "request": a word for a change.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Fetch structured data by URL or ASIN with optional field filters.
    Pass either url (an Amazon product page URL) or asin (10-char alphanumeric).
    fields (optional enum): profile | price | trend | ratings | competitiveness |
    seller | facts_check | red_flags | sentiment | data_limitations.
    live (optional, default false): when true, additionally hits a live data endpoint (~15-30s) and appends a "live" block with the freshest price, stock,
    Buy Box seller, rating, and review count, plus data_as_of and is_stale flags.
    Unknown field values return an error with the full list of allowed fields.
```

### `scrap_page`

- 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.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "scrape": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Scrape a product page in real time via a live data endpoint (~15-30s) for the latest price, stock, Buy Box seller, rating, and review count. The response carries data_as_of (when the platform observed the data) and an is_stale flag for freshness judgment.
```

## Only reads (8)

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

### `compare_products`

- The name "compare_products" says "compare": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Compare two to five products side-by-side across dimensions.
    asins: a list of 2-5 valid ASINs (10-char alphanumeric, e.g. "B08N5WRWNW").
    Fewer than 2 or more than 5 items returns an error.
```

### `get_category_brief`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get a structured brief for a category: market overview, considering factors, gotchas, common questions, needs, and keywords.
```

### `get_price`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get a product's latest price and product-page link.
```

### `get_price_change`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get a product's 180-day price change summary from recorded history: current price, 180-day low/high/average, sample count, and where the current price sits among its own recorded observations. Answers "is now a good time to buy" style questions from historical data; it is a stored snapshot, not a real-time quote (call scrap_page for live price).
```

### `get_product`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get a product's full profile: specs, full description, feature bullets, ratings, price,
    trend, dimension scores/percentiles, three-source facts check, red-flag signals, and sentiment.
    profile.full_description carries the complete listing description paragraph when available
    in the source listing; otherwise it is null (specifications and feature_bullets remain present).
```

### `get_top100`

- The name "get_top100" says "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get the Amazon US Top-100 Best Sellers Rank list for a product category (US market only).
    Pass exactly one of: category_id (a top-level category slug from list_categories,
    e.g. "pet-supplies") or subcategory_id (a numeric subcategory node id from
    list_categories, e.g. "3742171"). Omitting both returns an error.
```

### `list_categories`

- The name "list_categories" says "list": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List top-level Amazon US product categories and their subcategories covered by this service (US market only).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search for candidate products matching a query, each with a data-maturity tier.
    query: 1-8 space-separated plain words (no SQL/special chars).
    category_id: optional top-level category slug from list_categories (e.g. "pet-supplies").
    sort (enum): price_asc | price_desc | rating_desc | review_count_desc. Omit for relevance order.
    Filters: min_price / max_price in USD (floats), min_rating on a 0-5 scale.
    Invalid values return an error listing the allowed enum.
```

      "mcp__asinrating__request",
      "mcp__asinrating__scrap_page"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

Capability tags behind the rules (a read tagged outbound is asked about):

- `mcp__asinrating__request`: outbound
- `mcp__asinrating__scrap_page`: untrusted-input, outbound
