## Exfil surface

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

| 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. | none |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (1)

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

### `define_term`

- 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.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
The definition of one gemology term (for example 'crown angle', 'feather', 'fluorescence', 'scintillation', 'birefringence', 'cut grade'): a short definition, more detail, where it appears on a grading report, how Digital Gemology measures it, related terms, and its page.
```

## Only reads (2)

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

### `list_glossary`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Every term in the glossary, or in one topic, with a one-line definition and its page. The topics: Grading report, Four Cs, Anatomy and proportions, Clarity characteristics, Color and fluorescence, Light performance, How we measure, Optics, Gem testing, Gemstone properties, Colored gemstones, Treatments and origin, Diamond and simulants, Cuts and shapes, Cutting and files.
```

### `search_glossary`

- The name "search_glossary" says "search": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find glossary terms by a word or a question (for example 'what do the girdle words mean', 'inclusions near the surface', 'why does a diamond sparkle'). Returns each match with its definition and page.
```
