Changes things 6Claude Code: ask
  • fab_profileOne fab site in full, including the note that says what this record does not know about it, and every capacity statement whose sentence covers it.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    One fab site in full, including the note that says what this record does not know about it, and every capacity statement whose sentence covers it.
  • figure_historyThe revision history of one published figure: every vintage, what the publisher said in their own words, the date they issued it, and the link.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    The revision history of one published figure: every vintage, what the publisher said in their own words, the date they issued it, and the link. Includes the restatements as pairs of published values. Call this when a number is quoted and you want to know what the same publisher said before. It states no reason for any change.
  • node_bandsHow named publishers have defined process-node bands such as "advanced", each as a dated statement with its wafer basis.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    How named publishers have defined process-node bands such as "advanced", each as a dated statement with its wafer basis. This record defines no bands of its own.
  • recent_changesFigures that publishers restated recently, each an old value and a new value with both links.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Figures that publishers restated recently, each an old value and a new value with both links. Says what changed and never what it means.
  • record_gapsWhat this record is missing and why each one is open.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    What this record is missing and why each one is open. Call it before concluding a figure exists. Statuses distinguish "nobody publishes this" from "the source costs money" from "we have the URLs and have not done the work".
  • record_overviewStart here.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "start": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Start here. What this record holds, what it refuses to do, and the latest changes. Read it before assuming what is available.
Only reads 3Claude Code: allow
  • find_fabsSearch the fab sites in the record by country, operator, kind, status, wafer size or process node.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "find_fabs" says "find": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Search the fab sites in the record by country, operator, kind, status, wafer size or process node. Every row names the publisher it came from; rows with no publisher are not returned.
  • list_figuresEvery published forecast subject in the record and each year it has been forecast for, with how many vintages exist.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "list_figures" says "list": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Every published forecast subject in the record and each year it has been forecast for, with how many vintages exist. Use it to find a subject_id for figure_history.
  • list_sourcesEvery publisher this record collects, across BOTH mechanisms: their feed, or their own sitemap.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "list_sources" says "list": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Every publisher this record collects, across BOTH mechanisms: their feed, or their own sitemap. A publisher absent from one may be present in the other.

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
