## Exfil surface

1 private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound path in this server alone. Denying 1 outbound tool breaks every one: `mcp__catalog__create_quote_request`.

| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | `mcp__catalog__search_products` |
| untrusted-input | Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments. | `mcp__catalog__get_freight_estimate` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | `mcp__catalog__create_quote_request` |

| Private data | Untrusted input | Outbound |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `mcp__catalog__search_products` | `mcp__catalog__get_freight_estimate` | `mcp__catalog__create_quote_request` |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (1)

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

### `create_quote_request`

- The name "create_quote_request" says "create": a word for a change.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a destination (input.phone): what the tool writes goes there.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Create a real quote request in the MaterialHandling.com sales system. A human equipment specialist prices it (volume pricing + freight) and emails the finished quote, usually within one business day. Use when the customer wants formal/volume pricing. Requires the customer's real name and email — always confirm these with the customer before calling. Returns the quote number. Rate-limited to 5/hour.
```

## Only reads (4)

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

### `get_categories`

- The name "get_categories" says "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
The product category tree with live product counts. Category paths can be browsed on the website at https://materialhandling.com/{path}/.
```

### `get_freight_estimate`

- The name "get_freight_estimate" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "website": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Live LTL freight rates to a US ZIP code for one or more products — real carrier pricing (the same engine the website checkout uses). Returns carrier, service, transit days and price. Rate-limited to 10 calls/hour. Items that qualify for parcel (UPS) shipping or that need a custom quote are flagged.
```

### `get_product`

- The name "get_product" says "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Full detail for one product by SKU, model number (MPN) or product slug: pricing (incl. volume tiers), stock status, lead time in business days, full manufacturer specifications, images and product page URL.
```

### `search_products`

- The name "search_products" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "search" and "table": it reads databases.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search the MaterialHandling.com catalog (30,000+ industrial products: lift tables, pallet jacks, casters, dock equipment, hoists, cranes, carts, shelving and more from Vestil, Valley Craft and other brands). Returns name, SKU, price, availability, lead time (business days) and product URL. Use get_product for full specs.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__catalog__search_products",
      "mcp__catalog__get_product",
      "mcp__catalog__get_categories",
      "mcp__catalog__get_freight_estimate"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__catalog__create_quote_request"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__catalog__search_products`: private-data
- `mcp__catalog__get_freight_estimate`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__catalog__create_quote_request`: outbound

- **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 1 tool that changes things (1 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://materialhandling-7c6.pages.dev/mcp: tools/list returned 5 tools to an anonymous client, including create_quote_request (write)
