## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (5)

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

### `create_api_key`

- The name "create_api_key" says "create": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Provision a new Auto-Reader OCR API key instantly, with no human steps. Pass an optional email to unlock the larger free tier (about 250 credits/day, vs about 25/day for an email-less trial key). Store the returned key and pass it as api_key on future calls.
```

### `extract_document`

- 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
Extract STRUCTURED FIELDS from a document image: invoices, receipts, ID cards — or any custom JSON schema you supply. Every field returns {value, confidence, box} where the confidence and box come from the OCR geometry (never model guesswork); absent fields are null. preset="zatca" additionally decodes the Saudi ZATCA e-invoice QR (TLV) and cross-validates it against the printed fields — use it for Saudi tax invoices. Arabic-first accuracy. 5 credits/page (zatca 7).
```

### `ocr_and_translate`

- 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
One call: OCR an image, then translate every line into target_lang. Arabic-first OCR and manga-aware Japanese with right-to-left-aware layout, followed by LLM translation. Automatic source-language detection. Provide the image as base64. Ideal for reading foreign documents, signs, manga, or receipts end-to-end in a single step.
```

### `ocr_image`

- 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
Extract text from an image with GPU OCR. Best-in-class Arabic (plus Persian/Urdu) accuracy, manga-aware vertical Japanese, and strong English, French, Spanish, German, Chinese, Korean, Russian, Italian and Portuguese — 13+ languages. Automatic language and script detection with lang="auto". Returns reading-order layout text (right-to-left aware, paragraph-gapped) that is ready to feed an LLM or show a human, plus the detected language, the engine used, and the number of text blocks found. Provide the image as base64. Use the mode hint (document | receipt | manga | scene) to tune detection.
```

### `translate_text`

- 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
Translate text between 13+ languages with an LLM. Arabic-first quality, with formality control (formal/informal) and optional context to disambiguate meaning. Handles both short dictionary-style word lookups and full documents. Returns the translation and, when available, alternative phrasings.
```

## Only reads (2)

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

### `get_usage`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Check your Auto-Reader OCR key: tier, remaining daily free credits, prepaid credit balance, subscription allowance, and per-minute rate limit. Use it to throttle yourself before hitting a limit.
```

### `read_manga`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
OCR a comic/manga page, routed by LANGUAGE (not the blanket "manga = Japanese" assumption). Japanese goes to the manga specialist reader that reads vertical, hand-lettered speech bubbles in right-to-left order; Korean manhwa, Chinese manhua and other scripts use their own OCR pack; low-confidence pages escalate to the vision model. Returns text blocks in reading order plus the detected language, the engine used, and whether the page is vertical. Provide the image as base64. Pass lang explicitly (ko/zh/...) for the best non-Japanese result; default "auto" detects it.
```
