## Findings

- **warn** Mentions of other tools or servers in `find_indicator` ([tool-shadowing](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#tool-shadowing))

```untrusted-server-text
The description contains "any other tool", wording about other tools or servers.

description: "Use FIRST, before any other tool, whenever a question names a subject ra..."
```

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

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

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


## Changes things (2)

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

### `build_map_link`

- The name "build_map_link" says "link": a word for a change.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Use to end an answer with a link the user can open — after any ranking, comparison or district lookup, and whenever they ask to see, map or visualise something. Returns a spatialindia.com/app URL showing exactly those indicators. One indicator draws a choropleth, two draw a bivariate map; a third cannot be expressed in a link and is reported back as dropped.
```

### `rank_districts`

- 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
Use for best/worst/highest/lowest questions over many districts — "worst 20 districts for child stunting in Uttar Pradesh". Check the indicator's `polarity` in the result before calling a tail "worst": for a higher-worse indicator the worst districts are `order: "desc"`, for higher-better they are `order: "asc"`. Districts the source never covered sort last in both directions and are never presented as an extreme.
```

## Only reads (4)

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

### `compare_districts`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Use when the question names two or more places and asks how they differ — "compare Pune and Nagpur on literacy and bank credit". One call, not one get_district per district. Write an ambiguous name as "Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh".
```

### `find_indicator`

- The name "find_indicator" says "find": a word for reading.
- Findings: warn tool-shadowing

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Use FIRST, before any other tool, whenever a question names a subject rather than an indicator id — "stunting", "land inequality", "bank credit". Returns matching indicator ids with their unit, source, vintage, caveat and district coverage. Every other tool needs an id from here; ids are not guessable and inventing one fails.
```

### `get_district`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Use when the question is about one named place — "tell me about Bilaspur", "what is Pune's literacy rate". Resolves an Indian district name, including common alternative spellings, to its objectid and returns its values. Four district names are shared by two states, so if the name is ambiguous this returns every match with its state and no data: ask the user which one, then call again with `state`.
```

### `get_methodology`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Use whenever the answer will state a number to a user, and always when asked how a figure was produced, how old it is, or whether it can be trusted. Returns the source, vintage, definition, caveat, estimation method, licence attribution and the citation string for one indicator, or for the dataset as a whole when no indicator is given. Do not describe a number as measured or estimated without checking here — each district carries its own `estimated` flag.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__spatial-india__find_indicator",
      "mcp__spatial-india__get_district",
      "mcp__spatial-india__compare_districts",
      "mcp__spatial-india__get_methodology"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__spatial-india__rank_districts",
      "mcp__spatial-india__build_map_link"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```
