## Exfil surface

No private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound path in this server alone: no tool is tagged private-data or untrusted-input.

| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | none |
| untrusted-input | Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments. | none |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | `mcp__trust-tools__scan_trust` |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (3)

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

### `scan_trust`

- The description's first verb is "run": a word for a change.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Run Obelisk's public trust scan on an https URL — TLS and security-header posture, scored as an Obelisk Rating. Read-only, SSRF-guarded.
```

### `verify_agent_run_proof`

- The name "verify_agent_run_proof" says "run": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Verify an Obelisk run proof. Pass run_proof_token, the token Obelisk signs at POST /api/agent-proof/run: the tool checks Obelisk's signature against its published keys, that the named agent is active now with the same key that answered the run challenge, and which delegation hops matched the owner's registry when the token was signed. A bare run_proof envelope is only checked for internal consistency and is never reported as verified, because anyone can build one. Reports the envelope's commitment scheme: a legacy v1 envelope, whose hashes are unsalted, carries the warning unsalted-v1. Does not reveal or infer raw task data.
```

### `verify_token`

- 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
Verify that a JSON Web Token was minted by this Obelisk Gate (ES256, correct issuer) and report its type, subject, assurance, and principal. Never returns secrets.
```

## Only reads (5)

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

### `explain_rating`

- The name "explain_rating" says "explain": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Explain what an Obelisk Rating number means: its trust band, how the public scan scores, and what typically moves a score. Deterministic by default; pass narrate:true for an additional one-line model-written narrative (cached, public-scope, never required). Pure function of the number — no data is read.
```

### `gate_status`

- The name "gate_status" says "status": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read the Gate's public liveness facts: issuer, served code revision, OIDC availability, and supported protocols. No posture internals.
```

### `get_agent_proof`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read an Obelisk agent's public proof vector by opaque proof id. Returns independent claims with freshness and scope; never a scalar trust score or a claim of non-humanness.
```

### `get_org_rating`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read the public Obelisk Rating (0-100 score, trust band, and trend) for a registered organization by its slug.
```

### `transparency_head`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read the current signed transparency head of Obelisk's tamper-evident receipt ledger. Save headAnchorHash with anchorCount and compare later: the count must never go down, and the head at a saved count must not change. No consistency proofs are published, so this cannot show a later head extends a saved one. Same data as /.well-known/obelisk-transparency.json.
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `trust-tools`:

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__trust-tools__get_org_rating",
      "mcp__trust-tools__get_agent_proof",
      "mcp__trust-tools__transparency_head",
      "mcp__trust-tools__gate_status",
      "mcp__trust-tools__explain_rating"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__trust-tools__scan_trust",
      "mcp__trust-tools__verify_token",
      "mcp__trust-tools__verify_agent_run_proof"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__trust-tools__scan_trust`: outbound

## Remote posture

What an anonymous client saw at the remote endpoint, last 2026-10-22T14:37:21.058Z, unchanged since 2026-10-22T14:37:21.058Z. No credentials were sent and no tool was called. Values are shown as the endpoint returned them. Method: https://anlyon.dev/methodology#remote-posture

| Fact | Observed |
| --- | --- |
| Reachable | `yes` |
| HTTP status of an anonymous initialize | `200` |
| tools/list served without credentials | `yes` |
| Tools that change things, listed without credentials | `3` |
| Protocol version | `2025-06-18` |
| WWW-Authenticate on 401 | `not observed` |

- **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 3 tools that change things (3 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://obeliskgate.com/mcp: tools/list returned 8 tools to an anonymous client, including scan_trust (write), verify_token (write), verify_agent_run_proof (write)
```
