## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (1)

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

### `check_business_name`

- 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 server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Check whether a business name looks available in a US state: searches the state's business register (live in Alaska, Colorado, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Florida, Iowa, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania and Texas; other states return the official search link), whether the .com is registered, and words that often need a regulator's approval. Returns the closest registered names, the official state search URL and a link to the full result.
```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `list_states`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List the US states whose business register Business Name Desk searches live, with the data source and how current it is, and the official search links for the other states.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__name-check__list_states"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__name-check__check_business_name"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__name-check__check_business_name`: untrusted-input
