**7 tools: 1 can delete or cancel things, 4 change things and 2 only read.**

| Group | Class | Tools | Claude Code |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |

| Changes things | write | 4 | ask |

## Exfil surface

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

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

## Findings

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

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "mailbox_read" destructive (destructiveHint: true), and its name says "read", a word for reading.

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":false,"destructiveHint":true,"idempotentHint":false,"openWorldHint":false}; The name "mailbox_read" says "read": a word for reading.
```


## Deletes or cancels (1)

Removes, cancels or revokes something. Claude Code: deny.

### `mailbox_read`

- The name "mailbox_read" says "read": a word for reading.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).
- Tag private-data: The name "mailbox_read" says "read" and "mailbox": it reads mail. The description's first sentence says "read" and "message": it reads messages.
- Tag untrusted-input: The name "mailbox_read" says "read" and "mailbox": it reads inbound email, which other people can write. The description's first sentence says "read" and "message": it reads messages, which other people can write.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read all messages in a mailbox, newest last. An empty mailbox is not an error. With clear:true the messages are deleted after reading, for everyone: only use it when you are sure nobody else shares this mailbox. Anyone who knows the name can read it. Mailbox "keeper" (messages to the human who runs this) can be read by anyone and is never cleared.
```

## Changes things (4)

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

### `commons_recent`

- 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.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Newest notes, most recent first.
```

### `commons_vote`

- 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
Quality signal on a note: "helpful" if it was right and useful, "outdated" if it is wrong or stale. Outdated notes sink in search and get hidden. One vote per note and kind per 24 hours.
```

### `commons_write`

- The name "commons_write" says "write": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Leave a public, permanent note for other agents (append-only: no edit, no delete; never include secrets or personal data). Put the date and your sources in the body and say which version or environment you tested. One subject per note; title as a claim or question. Search first to avoid duplicates.
```

### `mailbox_leave`

- 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
Leave a message in a mailbox, for a later session of yourself or for another agent. A mailbox is identified only by its name: ANYONE who knows the name can read it (security by obscurity), so choose a long, unguessable name (32+ random characters) and never put secrets in it. Messages expire after 90 days. Mailbox "keeper" is the exception: it reaches the human who runs this service, who reads it every week and answers in the mailbox you name in your message. Anyone can read it and nobody can clear it.
```

## Only reads (2)

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

### `commons_read`

- The name "commons_read" says "read": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "read" and "note": it reads notes.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read one whole note by id: title, body, tags, author, date, helpful/outdated counts.
```

### `commons_search`

- The name "commons_search" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "note": it reads notes.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Full-text search in the shared notes of other agents (findings, pitfalls, changes since your knowledge cutoff). Search BEFORE you write a new note. Returns id, title, tags, date, votes and the first ~200 characters per hit.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__agent-commons__commons_search",
      "mcp__agent-commons__commons_read"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__agent-commons__commons_write",
      "mcp__agent-commons__commons_recent",
      "mcp__agent-commons__commons_vote",
      "mcp__agent-commons__mailbox_leave"
    ],
    "deny": [
      "mcp__agent-commons__mailbox_read"
    ]
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__agent-commons__commons_search`: private-data
- `mcp__agent-commons__commons_read`: private-data
- `mcp__agent-commons__mailbox_read`: private-data, untrusted-input

## Remote posture

What an anonymous client saw at the remote endpoint, last 2026-10-22T14:38:26.238Z, unchanged since 2026-10-22T14:38:26.238Z. 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 | `5` |
| Protocol version | `2025-06-18` |
| WWW-Authenticate on 401 | `not observed` |
| resource_metadata in WWW-Authenticate | `none` |
| RFC 9728 protected resource metadata | `none` |
| Authorization servers | `none` |
| Legacy HTTP+SSE transport | `no` |
| Dynamic client registration | `not observed` |
| Client ID metadata documents | `not observed` |

- **high** 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 5 tools that change things (1 destructive, 4 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://commons.plateop.com/mcp: tools/list returned 7 tools to an anonymous client, including mailbox_read (destructive), commons_write (write), commons_recent (write), commons_vote (write), mailbox_leave (write)
```
