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__news__fetch` `mcp__news__get_article` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | none |

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__news__search_news",
      "mcp__news__latest_news",
      "mcp__news__get_article",
      "mcp__news__search",
      "mcp__news__fetch"
    ],
    "ask": [],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__news__get_article`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__news__fetch`: untrusted-input
