## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (2)

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

### `calculate_bonus_tax`

- 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
What a bonus check pays after the flat 22% federal supplemental withholding, FICA and state tax, and how much of the federal withholding comes back (or is still owed) at tax time, on top of a salary, 2026 rules (IRS Pub. 15).
```

### `calculate_paycheck`

- 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
Compute a US paycheck for 2026: gross, each tax and pre-tax deduction, and take-home pay per paycheck and per year, for a salary or an hourly rate (overtime over 40 hours at 1.5 times) in any state or DC. Federal withholding follows the annual tax on wages; local city and county taxes are not included (the answer names them when material).
```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `compare_states`

- The name "compare_states" says "compare": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Take-home pay for the same salary in the 50 states and DC in 2026, sorted from the highest. Useful to answer "which state lets me keep the most" or to price a move.
```
