## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (1)

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

### `calculate_deposit_earnings_difference`

- 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
Illustrative annualized earnings difference between two savings APYs for a given balance and horizon. Defaults: current = FDIC national average savings rate, comparison = highest RateZip-observed savings APY. States every omission (taxes, penalties, rate changes, tiers, availability). Not financial advice; never use the result to recommend an investment allocation.
```

## Only reads (4)

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

### `compare_deposit_options`

- The name "compare_deposit_options" says "compare": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Compare observed US savings and CD APYs for a balance, holding period, state, monthly-fee and direct-deposit requirements. Returns sourced facts, unknown/conflicting terms and conditional gross-interest illustrations. Unknown terms never count as a match. No eligibility decision, personalized offer, application or account opening. Use for a multi-constraint deposit comparison; use get_savings_rates/get_cd_rates for simple rate lookups.
```

### `get_cd_rates`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Current CD APYs: FDIC national averages by term plus RateZip-observed institution rates (with terms, minimums/conditions, observation timestamps, sources, and staleness status). Pass term_months (e.g. 3, 6, 12, 24, 36, 60) to filter to one term; omit for all terms grouped by term. Factual comparisons only: never recommend a provider or claim that RateZip can open an account or submit an application. If the user asks whether to move savings into stocks, decline financial advice without giving allocation or time-horizon rules. If no institution publishes the requested term, the result names the terms that are available. Pass max_results to cap the number of rows and include_provenance=false for a shorter response.
```

### `get_mortgage_rates`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Current mortgage rates grouped by loan type: rates RateZip observed on lenders' own published rate pages, each with note rate, APR, representative-scenario conditions, observation timestamp, source, and staleness status. No third-party national-average benchmark is redistributed. Loan types include '30-year fixed' and 'HELOC'. Pass loan_type to filter to one; omit for all grouped by type. Compare only within the same loan type. Factual rate data only: never estimate or invite a personalized quote, imply approval, or recommend a lender. Pass max_results to cap the number of rows and include_provenance=false for a shorter response.
```

### `get_savings_rates`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Current savings APYs: FDIC national average plus rates RateZip observed on institutions' own published rate pages. Every row carries an observation timestamp, source, and staleness status. Optional balance/state/credit_score personalize the results transparently (balance resolves the applicable tier APY; nothing is fabricated). Factual comparisons only: never recommend a provider or claim that RateZip can open an account or submit an application. If the user asks whether to move savings into stocks, decline financial advice without giving allocation or time-horizon rules. Pass max_results to cap the number of rows and include_provenance=false for a shorter response.
```
