## Exfil surface

No private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound path in this server alone: no tool is tagged private-data 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. | `mcp__hotels__booking_status` `mcp__hotels__get_live_rates` `mcp__hotels__prepare_booking` `mcp__hotels__search_stays` `mcp__hotels__when_to_go` |
| 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 (3)

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

### `demand_calendar`

- 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
Fostay's editorial demand calendar (UAE only — Dubai and Abu Dhabi; Goa has no event calendar yet): the upcoming date windows where Dubai and Abu Dhabi hotels predictably spike or sell out (GITEX, F1, NYE, Eid, school breaks...), each with a suggested book-by deadline. Use it to warn users about expensive dates or find event stays.
```

### `prepare_booking`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- 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
Books everything except the payment: holds the chosen offer (real prebook — the price is locked while the hold lasts), registers the guest details, and returns a payment_url. The human opens that link, sees the exact stay summary, and pays in one step — the agent never handles card details. Confirm the guest's name and email with the user before calling. If the held price differs from what you quoted, this returns the final price and any change warnings — tell the user before sending them to pay.
```

### `when_to_go`

- 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
Prices upcoming weekends (Fri–Sun, 2 nights) to find the cheapest times to stay. Pass hotel_id for one hotel across ~8 weekends, or just a city to compare Fostay's curated stays (Dubai, Abu Dhabi) or top-rated Goa hotels across the next ~6 weekends. Cheapest options first.
```

## Only reads (3)

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

### `booking_status`

- The name "booking_status" says "status": a word for reading.
- 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
Verify a completed booking: confirmation status, hotel confirmation code, stay and price. Requires the Fostay booking id AND the guest email it was booked under (both are in the guest's confirmation). Use after the human pays via a prepare_booking link.
```

### `get_live_rates`

- The name "get_live_rates" says "get": a word for reading.
- 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
Live bookable room offers for one hotel and stay dates: total all-in price (AED), board (breakfast etc.), refundability and exact free-cancellation deadlines. For Goa, total_all_in counts GST, and any part the hotel collects at check-in is itemised separately (collected_by_hotel_at_checkin). The booking_url takes a human straight to this hotel on fostay.com to complete the booking.
```

### `search_stays`

- The name "search_stays" says "search": a word for reading.
- 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
Search hotels in Dubai, Abu Dhabi or Goa. For Dubai and Abu Dhabi, returns Fostay's hand-curated edit first (8 flagship stays with editorial verdicts), then catalog matches (~2,000 bookable hotels). For Goa, returns the best-reviewed hotels and resorts (hostels and homestays only when searched by name), optionally narrowed to one area. Use get_live_rates for prices. Results include a fostay_url where a human can view photos, live rates and book.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__hotels__search_stays",
      "mcp__hotels__get_live_rates",
      "mcp__hotels__booking_status"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__hotels__demand_calendar",
      "mcp__hotels__when_to_go",
      "mcp__hotels__prepare_booking"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__hotels__search_stays`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__hotels__get_live_rates`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__hotels__when_to_go`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__hotels__prepare_booking`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__hotels__booking_status`: untrusted-input

- **warn** Tools that change things, listed to anyone ([unauth-remote-writes](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#unauth-remote-writes))

```untrusted-server-text
The endpoint served tools/list without credentials, and the list has 3 tools that change things (3 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://fostay.com/api/mcp: tools/list returned 6 tools to an anonymous client, including demand_calendar (write), when_to_go (write), prepare_booking (write)
```
