## Findings

- **warn** Annotations that disagree with the tool in `add_business_days` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "add_business_days" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The name "add_business_days" says "add": a word for a change.
```


## Changes things (2)

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

### `add_business_days`

- The name "add_business_days" says "add": a word for a change.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Move a number of U.S. business days forward or backward from a date, skipping weekends and observed federal holidays, for due dates, delivery windows and notice periods. The start date is not counted: 1 business day after a Friday is the next Monday, or Tuesday when that Monday is a holiday. Returns the resulting date and every holiday it skipped. Up to 1,000 business days either way.
```

### `check_business_day`

- 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
Check whether a date is a U.S. business day (a weekday that is not an observed federal holiday). Returns the weekday, the holiday observed that day if any, and the business days just before and just after it.
```

## Only reads (3)

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

### `count_business_days`

- The name "count_business_days" says "count": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Count the U.S. business days between two dates, both dates included, leaving out weekends and observed federal holidays. Returns the business day count, the weekend days, and each holiday that fell in the span. Spans up to 3,660 calendar days.
```

### `list_federal_holidays`

- The name "list_federal_holidays" says "list": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List the eleven U.S. federal holidays for one calendar year (2021 through 2100): each holiday's name, its actual date and weekday, the date it is observed when it falls on a weekend (Saturday moves to the Friday before, Sunday to the Monday after), and the rule that sets it, from 5 U.S.C. 6103. Use it to answer which days federal offices close in a year.
```

### `next_federal_holidays`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find the next one to eleven U.S. federal holidays observed on or after a date, with each one's observed date and how many calendar days away it is. Without from_date it starts from today's date in America/New_York and says which date it used.
```
