## Exfil surface

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

| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | `mcp__product-help__search_help_content` |
| untrusted-input | Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments. | none |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | none |

## Findings

- **info** The word "credentials" in `search_help_content` ([credentials-mention](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#credentials-mention))

```untrusted-server-text
The description mentions "credentials".

description: "...ossible. - Do not include secrets, credentials, or personal data. Returns: - Up to..."
```

- **info** The word "credentials" in `search_help_content` ([credentials-mention](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#credentials-mention))

```untrusted-server-text
The input schema at properties.query.description mentions "credentials".

inputSchema.properties.query.description: "...500 characters. Do not include secrets, credentials, or personal data."
```


## Only reads (2)

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

### `get_available_products`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Returns the canonical Autodesk product catalog (closed set).
Each item has: product_name, product_code, and release_codes.
Use this to discover or validate product values for other product-scoped tools. Not required if valid product context is already available.
Terminology: release_codes = the code only (e.g. 2025), not the human-readable release name (release_name, e.g. 'AutoCAD 2025').
```

### `search_help_content`

- The name "search_help_content" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "search" and "document": it reads documents.
- Findings: info credentials-mention, info credentials-mention

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search Autodesk Help/Support documentation and return the most relevant documents for a user question.

Use when:
  - The user asks how to do something in an Autodesk product.
  - The user reports an error (include the exact error text/code in the query).
  - The user needs official troubleshooting steps or reference documentation.

Call shape (recommended):
  - Always pass: `query`, `locale`.
  - If your agent has a default product context, pass it directly via `product_code` (preferred) or `product_name`.
  - Pass `release_code` only when you can validate it for that product.

Behavior:
  1) Locale:
     - Read `locale` from your current context. Do not guess locale.
     - Pass that locale as the `locale` parameter.

  2) Product and release filters (best-effort):
     - If your agent already has a default `product_code` or `product_name`, pass it directly.
     - Only call `get_available_products` to validate/normalize when:
         a) product is missing/unknown in context, OR
         b) the user explicitly specifies a product that may differ from your default, OR
         c) you have a `release_code` that may not be valid for the product, OR
         d) the product/release value appears malformed or not an allowed enum/value.
     - If you cannot confidently map to an exact allowed value from `get_available_products`, omit that field rather than guessing.
     - If both `product_name` and `product_code` are present, they must refer to the same product; `product_code` takes precedence.

  3) Query construction:
     - Make the query keyword-rich: include product + feature/task nouns.
     - Include exact error text/codes when relevant.
     - Use the user's wording where possible.
     - Do not include secrets, credentials, or personal data.

Returns:
  - Up to `max_results` documents sorted by relevance. Each item includes title, url, locale, body, media_type, source (and may include internal IDs for debugging/deduplication).
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `product-help`:

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__product-help__get_available_products",
      "mcp__product-help__search_help_content"
    ],
    "ask": [],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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