## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (1)

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

### `extension_rank_history`

- 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
Track one extension's position in our overall and category user-count rankings. Returns per-scope history, not official store or keyword search positions. Untracked ranks may be missing.
```

## Only reads (15)

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

### `extension_api_usage`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read the current API key's daily REST/MCP usage and remaining key/account allowance. Requires a key, but remains available after its daily data quota is exhausted. Does not debit data quota; account minute limits still apply.
```

### `extension_compare`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Compare up to four extensions side by side: users, stars, rating counts, versions, permissions and recent permission changes. For historical comparisons, call extension_trends for each ID; this is not code-similarity detection.
```

### `extension_get`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get collected store metadata for one extension, including users, ratings and version. Free without a key for basic metadata only; a key returns the full metadata record. Unknown IDs return not found, never trigger a crawl.
```

### `extension_rankings`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read our saved user-count leaderboard for one date, overall or within a category. Returns positions and pagination; not official store or keyword search ranks. Use extension_rank_history to follow one extension over time.
```

### `extension_review_history`

- The description's first verb is "read": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The name "extension_review_history" says "review": it reads comments, which other people can write. The description's first sentence says "read" and "review": it reads comments, which other people can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read collected review counts grouped by original publication date and stars, plus version-level ratings and undated/unrated counts. Reconstructed from retained reviews, not historical store rating-count snapshots.
```

### `extension_review_insights`

- The description's first verb is "read": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The name "extension_review_insights" says "review": it reads comments, which other people can write. The description's first sentence says "read" and "review": it reads comments, which other people can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read stored review statistics and star distribution for an extension, optionally by review language. These describe collected reviews, not all store ratings. Missing statistics return null; no refresh is triggered.
```

### `extension_review_summary`

- The description's first verb is "get": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The name "extension_review_summary" says "review": it reads comments, which other people can write. The description's first sentence says "get" and "review": it reads comments, which other people can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get an existing published AI summary of collected reviews, with pros and cons. Use extension_reviews for original comments. Returns null when unavailable and English when a translation is missing; never calls a model or generates a new summary.
```

### `extension_reviews`

- The description's first verb is "read": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The name "extension_reviews" says "review": it reads comments, which other people can write. The description's first sentence says "read" and "review": it reads comments, which other people can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read original stored reviews for one extension, with text, star and language filters combined using AND. Returns reviews and pagination. For cross-extension or OR queries, use extension_reviews_search.
```

### `extension_reviews_search`

- The name "extension_reviews_search" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The name "extension_reviews_search" says "search" and "review": it reads comments, which other people can write. The description's first sentence says "search" and "review": it reads comments, which other people can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search original stored reviews across extensions with AND/OR field filters. Returns reviews and pagination. Example filter: {"field":"body","operator":"contains","value":"subscription"}. Use extensionEid to narrow to an extension.
```

### `extension_safety`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Inspect permission capabilities, observed permission changes and heuristic store risk signals. Reports evidence and incomplete assessments; not a malware scan, malware probability or safety guarantee.
```

### `extension_search`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find extensions by name, description or category name. Returns metadata and pagination, ordered by user count. Use returned IDs for detail and analysis tools; not Chrome Web Store keyword search positions.
```

### `extension_source_search`

- The name "extension_source_search" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "find" and "file": it reads files.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```

### `extension_top`

- The description's first verb is "browse": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "browse": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Browse extensions ranked by current users, average stars or store rating count. Free without a key for the first 10 by users only; omit arguments for that preview. Other sorts and pagination require a key.
```

### `extension_trending`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find growing extensions using saved 7/14/30/90-day user or rating-count growth rankings. Candidates have 1K-1M users and at least 500 net new users in the window. Free without a key for the first 10 by 30-day user gain; omit arguments for that preview. Missing comparison data is not zero growth; requests never rebuild rankings.
```

### `extension_trends`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read one extension's user-count, store rating-count and average-star history with current metrics and deltas. Use for time-series analysis, not keyword ranks. Missing days are not zero values.
```
