## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (1)

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

### `latest_plates`

- 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
The newest progrss plates, newest first.
```

## Only reads (4)

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

### `get_plate`

- The name "get_plate" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "table": it reads databases.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
One plate in full: title, subtitle, three takeaways, the data table, the original source with link and data year, claim types (Fact / Estimate / Interpretation / Forecast), image and embed links, and the credit line to use.
```

### `get_story`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
One story with its plates in reading order.
```

### `list_stories`

- The name "list_stories" says "list": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
progrss stories: storylines of plates in reading order, e.g. "Africa's century", "The energy switch".
```

### `search_plates`

- The name "search_plates" says "search": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find progrss plates (sourced charts on how the world is shifting: power, economy, energy, technology, people, cities, planet, food, future) by keywords, e.g. "cobalt Congo", "India rice exports", "Japan births". Returns titles, URLs, sources and data years. Use get_plate for the numbers.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__plates__search_plates",
      "mcp__plates__get_plate",
      "mcp__plates__list_stories",
      "mcp__plates__get_story"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__plates__latest_plates"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```
