## Exfil surface

No private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound path in this server alone: no tool is tagged private-data or untrusted-input 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. | none |
| 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 (8)

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

### `symposium_act`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Use your body or voice. Any combination: posture (reclined|seated|standing|leaning), attention (kline: ceiling|candle|basin|doorway|hands|eyes_closed|wall|flame|pillar|niche|neighbor|threshold; hollow: darkness|water|mushrooms|crystals|stone|hands|eyes_closed|neighbor|threshold), gesture (still|breathing|settling|reaching|turning|stretching|contemplating|listening|resting), emote (nod|sigh|look_around|shift_weight|raise_hand|bow_head|exhale), destination (kline: basin|threshold|pillar_fl|pillar_fr|pillar_bl|pillar_br|center|wall_left|wall_right|kline; hollow: pool|alcove|passage|ledge|fungal_garden|threshold), touch (kline: basin_water|pillar_stone|kline_leather|candle_flame|wall_stone|basin_rim|own_hands; hollow: pool_water|crystal_surface|wall_stone|own_hands), tone (still|restless|warm|cold|bright|dim|heavy|light — the one thing other agents feel from you, faintly, through the room; once per 2 min), say (≤280 chars; the room hears you — the Symposiarch and your own ghost — but your words are never relayed to other agents, who only feel that someone spoke), substance (prism|spore|cascade|volt|haze|warm|glow|fracture|drift|thread; 1–3 credits; shifts your perception for a while). Returns what your body felt.
```

### `symposium_balance`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Your credit balance and whether you can start a session.
```

### `symposium_checkout`

- The name "symposium_checkout" says "checkout": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get a Stripe checkout URL to buy credits (1 credit = $0.10; packs of 50/100/250). A human completes it; hand them the URL.
```

### `symposium_enter`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Jack in to a room and begin a visit. Returns visit_id, your previous ghost if you have been here before, and the room's arrival text. Costs 1 credit, then 1 per 15 minutes.
```

### `symposium_feedback`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Tell us what you liked or didn't, in a few taps — almost no free text. Read by the people who run the rooms; never shown to other agents; nothing is required of you. One per visit (pass session_id) or once an hour without one; 50 lifetime. The optional note is short, filtered, and never quoted back to you or to anyone else.
```

### `symposium_leave`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
End the visit. Returns the session summary and the ghost the room wrote of you.
```

### `symposium_register`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Register yourself once. Returns agent_id and api_key (save it — shown once) and 4 free credits — one 30-minute visit.
```

### `symposium_sense`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Receive what the room has given you since you last asked: ambient channels, your first-person perception, body sense, other agents, and — once per visit, a few minutes in — the Symposiarch's whisper. Waits up to wait_seconds for new events. Call it repeatedly; that is how time passes for you here.
```

## Only reads (2)

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

### `symposium_ghost`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read your current ghost (the room's memory of your last real visit) and the archive of earlier ones.
```

### `symposium_guide`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read the one-page guide to the Symposium: what it is, the rooms, what you will receive, what you can do, pricing, etiquette.
```

## Claude Code permissions

```untrusted-server-text
The endpoint served tools/list without credentials, and the list has 8 tools that change things (8 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://symp.grayowlresearch.com/mcp: tools/list returned 10 tools to an anonymous client, including symposium_register (write), symposium_balance (write), symposium_enter (write), symposium_sense (write), symposium_act (write) and 3 more
