    Why it is in this group

    • 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
    Rule one food subject against the household premise (restrictions, thresholds, or both). Needs a key (Authorization: Bearer kg_live_…); create a free one with the register tool. Returns one of four verdicts (no_conflict_found, conflict_found, ask_one_question, couldnt_verify) with typed hits, source kind and read date. Unknown counts as no; the word safe is never used.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: true
  • check_planRule a set of items at once: a recipe's ingredients, a basket, several days.No findings

    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Rule a set of items at once: a recipe's ingredients, a basket, several days. Needs a key (Authorization: Bearer kg_live_…); create a free one with the register tool. Up to 25 subjects, one call, one verdict per item plus a summary line. Each item carries its own evidence, source and read date.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: true
  • check_venueRule a whole venue's published chart against the household restrictions in one call.No findings

    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Rule a whole venue's published chart against the household restrictions in one call. Needs a key (Authorization: Bearer kg_live_…); create a free one with the register tool. Returns per-verdict counts, the most severe items, the operator's cross-contact caveat verbatim, and the chart's source and read date. A venue with no machine-readable chart says so honestly.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: true
  • registerSign yourself up for a developer key without leaving MCP.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Sign yourself up for a developer key without leaving MCP. The email is contact and recovery, not a wall. One key per email, free tier (100 checks a month); the key is in this response and never shown again. Nothing on knowngate.com itself needs a key.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: false
    • idempotentHint: false

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
