## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (1)

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

### `news_headlines`

- 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
Today's latest news headlines from public broadcasters and newspapers, newest first: title, source, time, short excerpt and link.
Use when: you need current events, "what's in the news today", or the latest headlines on a topic.
Topics (English): world, business, technology, science, health, sport. Languages: en, fr, nl, de, es, it, pt.
Example: {"topic":"technology","lang":"en","results":10}
```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `news_search`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Searches the latest news (roughly the last one or two days) from public broadcasters and newspapers for words such as a name, place or event. Not an archive.
Use when: you need recent news about a specific subject.
Example: {"query":"Belgium elections","lang":"en"}
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

    "allow": [
      "mcp__news__news_search"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__news__news_headlines"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```
