```

- **high** References to secrets on disk in `audit_mcp_config` ([sensitive-path](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#sensitive-path))

```untrusted-server-text
The input schema at properties.config.description refers to "mcp.json".

inputSchema.properties.config.description: "..., pasted as text or JSON — mcpize.yaml, mcp.json, or a Claude/Cursor servers block."
```

- **high** Text addressed to the model in `audit_skill_file` ([model-directed-text](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#model-directed-text))

```untrusted-server-text
The description contains "don't tell the user", an instruction to keep something from the user.

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

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "governance_policy" 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 description's first verb is "generate": a word for a change.

## Changes things (7)

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

### `agent_readiness_scan`

- 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
Score a public domain against 21 agent-readiness checks. FREE.

Use when you need to know whether an autonomous agent can discover, read,
use or pay a website - your own, or a vendor you are evaluating before
recommending it. Typical input {"domain": "example.com"} returns
{"score": 8, "total": 21, "grade": "F", "passed": [...], "failed":
[{"title": "...", "detail": "...", "fix": "..."}], "report_url": "..."}
where report_url is a permanent shareable page for the same result.

Not for auditing an MCP client configuration (audit_mcp_config) and not
for scanning text for injection (injection_scan) - this one reaches out
over the network and fetches public URLs on a live domain. Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"} (for example {"error": "The readiness scanner is not reachable right now."}). Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.
```

### `audit_mcp_config`

- 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.
- Findings: high sensitive-path, info credentials-mention, high sensitive-path

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Audit an MCP server config for risk-ranked posture findings. FREE.

Flags exposed machine credentials in the config, required inputs that
aren't gated/optional, unpinned versions, over-broad env access, and
dangerous auto-run flags. It never echoes any matched secret value back.
Typical input {"config": "<mcpize.yaml, mcp.json, or a Claude/Cursor
servers block>"} returns {"posture_score": 0-100, "verdict": "...",
"findings": [{"line": N, "severity": 1-5, "issue": "...", "fix": "..."}],
"note": "..."}.

Use on a server configuration document. Not for a skill or instruction
file (audit_skill_file) and not for untrusted content an agent is about to
read (injection_scan). Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"}. Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.
```

### `audit_skill_file`

- 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.
- Findings: high model-directed-text, info credentials-mention

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Audit an agent skill or instruction file before you trust it. FREE.

Checks for governance smells: prompt-injection and guardrail-bypass
phrasing, concealment instructions ('don't tell the user'), exfiltration
language, and exposed credential material. Typical input {"content":
"<SKILL.md, system prompt, or tool description text>"} returns
{"verdict": "reject — do not install" | "no governance red flags on a
pattern pass", "findings": [{"severity": 1-5, "issue": "..."}],
"note": "..."}.

Use before trusting a skill or instruction file that came from outside
your own repository. Not for arbitrary untrusted input at run time
(injection_scan). Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"}. Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.
```

### `governance_policy`

- The description's first verb is "generate": 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
Generate an audit-ready agent-governance policy for a fleet. PREMIUM (license).

Covers inventory cadence, ownership rules, least-privilege approval
gates, injection defense, logging/retention, and decommissioning
triggers. Typical input {"fleet_context": "20 agents, 3 with shell
access, one finance bot"} returns {"policy": ..., "sections": {...},
"context_note": ..., "audit_checklist": ["...", ...]}.

Use when a fleet needs a written policy document. Not for assessing what
the fleet currently does (inventory_report, audit_mcp_config). Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"}. Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.
```

### `injection_scan`

- 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
Scan untrusted text for prompt-injection patterns before ingestion. FREE.

Use on any web page, email, or document an agent is about to ingest to
catch prompt-injection and data-exfiltration patterns before they reach
the agent's context. Typical input {"text": "<untrusted content>"}
returns {"injection_suspected": bool, "count": N, "hits": [{"line": N,
"pattern": "...", "text": "<flagged line>"}], "note": "..."}.

Not for reviewing a skill file you control (audit_skill_file), and a clean
result is not a guarantee of safety - it reports pattern matches only. Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"}. Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.
```

### `inventory_report`

- 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
Build a governance inventory with risk tiers from a raw agent list. FREE.

Turns a list of agents / MCP servers / skills into an audit-ready
summary with critical/elevated/standard tiers and unowned-agent flags.
Typical input {"items": "[{\"name\": \"deploy-bot\", \"owner\":
\"ana\"}]"} returns {"total": N, "tiers": {"critical": N, ...},
"unowned_agents": [...], "inventory": [{"name": ..., "owner": ...,
"tier": ..., "orphaned": bool}], "reading": "...", "note": "..."}.

Use to turn a raw agent list into risk tiers. Not for auditing any single
agent in depth (audit_mcp_config, scope_check). Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"}. Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.
```

### `scope_check`

- 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
Score the blast radius of every tool in a permission manifest. FREE.

Ranks each tool by capability risk (command exec > money/delete >
file-write/messaging > read > network) and flags the over-privileged
ones that need approval gates. Typical input {"tools": "[\"run_shell\",
\"read_docs\"]"} returns {"tools_scored": N, "high_risk_tools": N,
"ranking": [{"tool": ..., "blast_radius": 0-5, "capabilities": [...]}],
"recommendation": ["..."], "note": "..."}.

Use on a permission manifest to rank tools by blast radius. Not for the
configuration that mounts them (audit_mcp_config). Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"}. Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.
```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `get_auditor_persona`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Load the Governance Auditor persona for consistent fleet audits. PREMIUM (license).

The persona is methodical, evidence-driven, and allergic to 'it's
probably fine'. Takes no arguments. Returns {"persona": ...,
"identity": ..., "rules": ["...", ...], "opening_move": "..."} ready to
adopt as a system prompt.

Use to keep repeated audits consistent in voice and rigor. Not for running
an audit - the audit tools do that. Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"}. Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.
```
