## Changes things (3)

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

### `check_readiness`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- Findings: info credentials-mention

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Given a domain, return each connectable resource it publishes with a readiness assessment (ready | credentials-required | incomplete | broken, with the exact missing field) read from the service's own metadata. Client-agnostic; read-only. Use connect_domain when you know the client's capabilities.
```

### `connect_domain`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- Findings: info credentials-mention

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Given a domain AND the calling client's capabilities, return HOW the client can connect: one outcome (ready | credentials-required | incomplete | broken | no-compatible-method) with a connection plan (protocol, endpoint, transport, version, and the auth metadata the service published — e.g. the OAuth authorize/token endpoints and scopes), or the exact missing field when the service under-publishes. Deterministic matching, no scores. Read-only; credentials stay with the caller and are never sent to NessGate.
```

### `discover_domain`

- 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
Given a domain, read whatever it publishes at the standard machine-discovery locations (llms.txt, /.well-known/ard.json, /.well-known/agent-card.json, /.well-known/api-catalog, ai-info.json, openapi.json, and more) and return one normalized answer. Each resource keeps a sourceUrl pointing back to the domain so the caller can verify. NessGate reads the domain live and stores no discovered domain or resource data; it makes no ownership or safety claim.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__nessgate__discover_domain",
      "mcp__nessgate__connect_domain",
      "mcp__nessgate__check_readiness"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```
