## Exfil surface

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

| 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. | `mcp__epubcheck__check_epub` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | none |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (1)

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

### `check_epub`

- 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.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Check an EPUB file (EPUB 2 or 3) against the EPUB specifications with
EPUBCheck, the W3C's conformance checker.

Input: `epub_base64` is the base64 of the EPUB, at most 4 MB decoded, or
pass the file as a download link in `file`.

Returns `summary` (`valid`, and the `fatal`, `error` and `warning`
counts; `valid` is true when there is no FATAL and no ERROR message),
`messages` (the 20 most severe, FATAL first, each with `severity`, `id`,
`message`, up to three `locations` as `path:line:column`, and a
`suggestion` when EPUBCheck has one), `messages_total` and
`epubcheck_version`. For the full report, or files up to 25 MB, use the
REST API (`POST /v1/epubcheck/check`).

Credits: 2 per call.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__epubcheck__check_epub"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__epubcheck__check_epub`: untrusted-input
