## Exfil surface

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

| 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__web-data__call_endpoint` `mcp__web-data__get_endpoint` `mcp__web-data__search_endpoints` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | `mcp__web-data__call_endpoint` `mcp__web-data__get_endpoint` |

## Findings

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

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "call_endpoint" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"openWorldHint":true}; The name "call_endpoint" says "call": a word for a change.
```


## Changes things (1)

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

### `call_endpoint`

- The name "call_endpoint" says "call": a word for a change.
- 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.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.endpoint): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Run one endpoint and return its JSON response. Spends the endpoint's credits from the user's balance on success only; failed calls are free. Pass parameters exactly as get_endpoint lists them (array parameters as JSON arrays). The result reports credits used and remaining. Errors come back with a code: invalid_parameters (fix the parameters and retry), not_found (no data for these parameters), rate_limited or temporarily_unavailable (wait and retry), insufficient_credits, restricted_endpoint (the user must accept the restricted-endpoint terms in their dashboard), invalid_api_key (the MCP server config needs a valid API key). Responses over 100,000 characters are truncated; use paging or limit parameters to fetch less.
```

## Only reads (2)

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

### `get_endpoint`

- The name "get_endpoint" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The input takes a URL (input.endpoint), and the tool reads it: it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.endpoint): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.
- Claude Code: ask, because it is tagged outbound.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get the full parameter list for one endpoint: each parameter's name, type, whether it is required, allowed values and limits, plus an example set of parameters, the credit cost and tier. Call this before call_endpoint unless you already know the parameters. Free; no API key needed.
```

### `search_endpoints`

- The name "search_endpoints" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "find" and "website": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find Perceptlayer endpoints for a website or kind of data. The catalogue has 1659 endpoints across 248 sources, so search before calling. Query with the site and the data you want, e.g. "amazon product reviews", "airbnb listing", "linkedin company", "google maps places", "zillow property". Returns compact matches: endpoint ID (pass it to get_endpoint or call_endpoint), name, HTTP method, credits per call, tier ("restricted" endpoints need the account's restricted-endpoint terms accepted) and required parameters. Free; no API key needed.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__web-data__search_endpoints"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__web-data__get_endpoint",
      "mcp__web-data__call_endpoint"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__web-data__search_endpoints`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__web-data__get_endpoint`: untrusted-input, outbound
- `mcp__web-data__call_endpoint`: untrusted-input, outbound
