## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (1)

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

### `estimate_cost`

- 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
Free: return the page count and exact cost_usd to read a document URL with read_document, without running OCR. Use before reading large documents.
```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `read_document`

- The name "read_document" says "read": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read a document (PDF or image) from a URL and return its contents as markdown (tables preserved) or plain text. Costs $0.00075 per page, billed to the PennyOCR account; the response includes the exact cost_usd and per-page citations. Use estimate_cost first for big documents. Supports page ranges and hard spend caps.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json

  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__ocr__read_document"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__ocr__estimate_cost"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```
