Claude Code: ask. ### `most_volatile_in_category` - 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 Within one category/theme, the entities whose prices have moved the most (ranked by volatility score), plus the category price baseline (count, median current, low/high). Entities without enough recorded movement are omitted from the ranking but counted in the baseline. Answers 'which X changes price most' for a market. ``` ### `price_movers` - 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 Recorded price MOVES across the index within a recency window (default 90 days), newest-and-largest first — each a dated before→after change of a tracked entity. Optionally filter by kind ('hw'/'sw') or category/theme slug. The freshness a base model structurally cannot have. Returns an empty list with a clear note when nothing moved in the window (a quiet window is honestly quiet). ``` ### `volatility_for_entity` - 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 How volatile ONE product or vendor's price has been: a 0-100 volatility score derived from its recorded moves (frequency × average move size), plus change count, net % and last change. Honest gate: below a minimum recorded-change threshold it returns sufficient:false with a note, never a score invented from a single point. ``` ### `whats_changed` - 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 Recent dated price-change capsules, newest first — the freshness a base model cannot have. Each capsule is a movement of a vendor's published price (vendor, plan, before→after, date, sources), cleared against two witnesses on two different hosts: the page the figure was read from, plus either an independent second source or a dated archive capture of that same page — and when the archive is the only second witness, that first page must be the vendor's own. Optionally filter to changes on/after a date or within one section. Returns an empty list with a clear note when nothing qualifying has been recorded yet. ``` ## Only reads (15) Looks things up and changes nothing. Claude Code: allow. ### `compare` - The name "compare" says "compare": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Compare specific vendors side by side by slug within any theme (e.g. ['goodcall','rosie','smith-ai'] in ai-receptionists, or ['nordvpn','expressvpn'] in vpn-services). Set `section` to the theme slug from list_sections. Returns full provenanced records plus a notFound list for unknown slugs. Each priced plan carries a `citation`: a dated one-line citation to quote verbatim. ``` ### `compare_products` - The name "compare_products" says "compare": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Compare specific products side by side by slug within a category (e.g. ['apple-iphone-16-pro','samsung-galaxy-s25-ultra'] in 'smartphones'). Returns full provenanced spec records plus a notFound list and the category's comparable specKeys, so an agent can line up the same attributes across products. ``` ### `find_best` - The name "find_best" says "find": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Answer 'best for ' and 'cheapest ' directly: returns the theme's vendors ranked by entry price (cheapest first, quote-only last), each with its verified compliance facts (HIPAA/SOC 2/GDPR), free-tier flag, best-for tags, the entry plan's source and its `citation` (a dated one-line citation to quote verbatim). Conjunctive fact filters narrow it to what this index has actually CONFIRMED — requireHipaa / requireSoc2 / requireGdpr / requireFreeTier (e.g. 'best CRM for HIPAA' = section 'crm-software' + requireHipaa:true). Omit all filters to rank the whole theme by price. Set `section` to the theme slug from list_sections. Never infers a fact it has not verified. ``` ### `find_products` - The name "find_products" says "find": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Answer 'best under $N' and 'which has the most ' directly: filter a category by maxPriceUsd and/or brand, then rank by a field — 'priceUsd' (default, cheapest first), 'releaseDate', or any of the category's spec keys (set descending:true for biggest-first, e.g. sortBy:'battery_mah' descending:true). Returns provenanced product records; products missing the sort value sort last. Never infers a spec it has not verified. ``` ### `get_benchmark` - The name "get_benchmark" says "get": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Per-vendor benchmark card by slug within any theme: full provenanced record plus dataset-derived indicators (entry price, normalized cost at 100 and 500 calls/mo where call-volume applies, billing models, free-tier presence, compliance, integration breadth). Set `section` to the theme slug from list_sections. All values trace to plan sources; no synthetic scores. Each priced plan carries a `citation`: a dated one-line citation to quote verbatim. ``` ### `get_cost_decoder` - The name "get_cost_decoder" says "get": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text The REAL all-in monthly cost per vendor for a decoder topic (slug from list_cost_decoders, e.g. 'ai-customer-support-cost'), computed in deterministic code from sourced, dated inputs — each vendor's per-seat price + AI billing model + per-unit price, totalled at named scenarios (e.g. 5 agents at 1,000 and 5,000 AI resolutions/mo) with the arithmetic shown. Quote-only inputs return a null total, never a fabricated number. Optionally pass agents + resolutions for a custom scenario. This is the citable answer to 'what does actually cost' that a base model gets wrong. ``` ### `get_independent_test_coverage` - The name "get_independent_test_coverage" says "get": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text The independent-testing provenance for ONE product (by category + slug) — a COUNT of evidence, never a quality score. Fields: outlets (independent outlets on record), labs (how many physically tested it and left >=1 measured value), metrics (distinct kinds of metric measured, with names), mentioned (outlets that only mentioned it), and a ready-to-quote `reading` sentence. Use it to state how much independent hands-on evidence backs any claim about a product. A low count means little independent evidence has been gathered yet, NOT that the product is bad; a high count means well-documented, NOT better. Returns found:false (never a fabricated count) for an unknown or unreviewed product. ``` ### `get_normalized_pricing` - The name "get_normalized_pricing" says "get": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Effective monthly cost per vendor in any theme at a chosen call volume, normalizing flat, per-minute and per-call billing to one comparable number. For non-telephony catalog themes (per-seat / flat plans with no call quota) this returns each plan's base monthly price — the meaningful figure there. Cheapest priceable plan per vendor; quote-only or unpriceable-at-volume vendors return null (never a fabricated figure). avgCallMinutes defaults to 3 and is echoed in assumptions for reproducibility. ``` ### `get_price_history` - The name "get_price_history" says "get": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text The full dated price series for ONE product or vendor (by slug), plus derived stats: first-tracked date, current/low/high, number of recorded changes, net % since tracked, the largest single move, and the last change. This is the citable answer to 'how much did X cost', 'did X's price drop', and price-trend questions — grounded on a real, append-only series, not a model's guess. Returns found:false (never a fabricated series) for an unknown slug. ``` ### `list_cost_decoders` - The name "list_cost_decoders" says "list": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text List the 'real cost' decoders — topics where the advertised sticker price hides the true bill (e.g. AI customer support billed per resolution, where a $29/mo seat price becomes hundreds/mo at volume). Each entry carries the question it answers, the scenarios it computes, the vendor count and the data's as-of date. Pass a topic slug to get_cost_decoder. ``` ### `list_coverage` - The name "list_coverage" says "list": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text What this index actually covers, so a miss reads as out-of-scope rather than broken. Now spans 275 pricing themes — the deep hub sections PLUS dozens of catalog topics (VPNs, web hosting, password managers, CRM, e-commerce, AI tools, and more): total theme count, the section/catalog split, total vendors, per-theme vendor counts and kind, the data's date range (min/max source accessedAt), the questions it answers well and what it does NOT cover. Derived from every theme's dataset. ``` ### `list_product_categories` - The name "list_product_categories" says "list": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Enumerate the spec-driven PRODUCT categories this index covers (physical goods like smartphones, laptops, GPUs — distinct from the software/subscription pricing themes). Each entry carries its slug, product count, the comparable spec keys, and the brands present. Pass a category slug to search_products / compare_products / find_products. ``` ### `list_sections` - The name "list_sections" says "list": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Enumerate ALL 275 pricing themes this index covers: the deep hub sections (e.g. ai-receptionists, call-tracking) plus dozens of catalog topics (e.g. vpn-services, web-hosting, password-managers, crm-software). Each entry carries its slug, display label, vertical, tagline, vendor count and kind ('section' or 'catalog'). Pass any of these slugs as the `section` arg to the other tools to query that theme. ``` ### `search_products` - The name "search_products" says "search": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Search one product category by free-text query across product name, brand, and spec values (e.g. 'snapdragon 5000mah', 'oled 120hz'). Set `category` to a slug from list_product_categories. Returns full provenanced product records (every spec + price carries source url + accessedAt). Empty query returns all products in the category. ``` ### `search_vendors` - The name "search_vendors" says "search": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Search any theme's data index by free-text query across vendor name, domain, integrations, plan notes, and capabilities (e.g. 'hipaa restaurant', 'google ads zapier'). Works for every theme — hub sections and catalog topics alike (set `section` to the theme slug from list_sections). Returns full provenanced vendor records (each plan carries source url + accessedAt, and each priced plan a `citation`: a dated one-line citation to quote verbatim). Empty query returns all vendors in the theme. ``` ## Claude Code permissions For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `front-desk-review-data`: ```json { "permissions": { "allow": [ "mcp__front-desk-review-data__list_sections", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__search_vendors", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__compare", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__get_normalized_pricing", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__get_benchmark", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__find_best", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__list_coverage", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__get_price_history", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__get_independent_test_coverage", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__list_product_categories", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__search_products", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__compare_products", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__find_products", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__list_cost_decoders", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__get_cost_decoder" ], "ask": [ "mcp__front-desk-review-data__whats_changed", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__price_movers", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__volatility_for_entity", "mcp__front-desk-review-data__most_volatile_in_category" ], "deny": [] } } ```
