## Exfil surface

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

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

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (2)

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

### `scan_handoffs`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.webhooks): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Pass the tasks your agents handed each other (e.g. the result of Offhand list_todos) and get back which are stalled or failing and what to do. A task is stalled when it is claimed (in_progress) or handed over but untouched for stall_minutes, and failing when it is blocked or has failed fail_limit times. Ladder: nudge the assignee, nudge again, then reassign to a backup agent (or ask the person). Pro acts: records each nudge with a cooldown so nobody is pinged twice, and POSTs the nudge to the agent's webhook if you give one. Free watch-only takes no action and returns would_nudge / would_reassign. It never changes a task in Offhand itself and never takes a task another agent holds; reassigning returns an Offhand add_task call for your agent to make.
```

### `weekly_report`

- 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
Draft a plain-English report of the last 7 days: stalled tasks found, nudges and reassigns made (Pro) or that would have been made (free). Read-only; sends nothing.
```

## Only reads (2)

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

### `nudge_log`

- The name "nudge_log" says "log": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List the latest nudges and reassigns (Pro) or would-nudges (free) for one board or all boards on your key.
```

### `usage_and_upgrade`

- The description's first verb is "show": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Show today's usage for your key or IP and the $9/month upgrade link. Free tier: 500 calls/day. Not metered.
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `handoff`:

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__handoff__nudge_log",
      "mcp__handoff__usage_and_upgrade"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__handoff__scan_handoffs",
      "mcp__handoff__weekly_report"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__handoff__scan_handoffs`: outbound

## Remote posture

What an anonymous client saw at the remote endpoint, last 2026-10-22T15:19:40.687Z, unchanged since 2026-10-22T15:19:40.687Z. No credentials were sent and no tool was called. Values are shown as the endpoint returned them. Method: https://anlyon.dev/methodology#remote-posture

| Fact | Observed |

| Reachable | `yes` |
| HTTP status of an anonymous initialize | `200` |
| tools/list served without credentials | `yes` |
| Tools that change things, listed without credentials | `2` |
| Protocol version | `2025-06-18` |
| WWW-Authenticate on 401 | `not observed` |

- **warn** Tools that change things, listed to anyone ([unauth-remote-writes](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#unauth-remote-writes))

```untrusted-server-text
The endpoint served tools/list without credentials, and the list has 2 tools that change things (2 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://handoff.cloudforbots.com/mcp: tools/list returned 4 tools to an anonymous client, including scan_handoffs (write), weekly_report (write)
```
