## Exfil surface

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

| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | none |
| untrusted-input | Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments. | none |
| 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 `analyze_frame` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

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

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

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The name "draft_project_request" says "request": a word for a change.
```


## Changes things (4)

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

### `about_structomat`

- 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
Facts about Structomat, an AI engineering agent for structural steel: what it does, design codes, who signs designs for construction, what to send, what comes back, how to start. Use when the user asks about Structomat or how to engage it.
```

### `analyze_frame`

- The name "analyze_frame" says "analyze": a word for reading.
- The description's first verb is "run": 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
Runs a 3D finite-element frame analysis and returns the numbers: equilibrium check, largest deflection along the members, largest joint displacement and sway in X and Y, every support reaction, the axial force, shears and moments of every member (the envelope with the governing combination when there are several), and natural periods with mass participation (modal analysis); linear or second order (P-Delta). The model is either a template (a pitched portal frame building, an open mono-pitch canopy, or a multi-storey frame, from a few dimensions, sections and loads) or a full model in JSON (nodes, members, sections, supports, loads, combinations). It is solved by the code of Structomat's free 3D frame analysis page, so the result also has a link that shows the same model and results in 3D (deflected shape, force diagrams, mode shapes). Use it to check a frame, compare sections or see how loads flow, and run it again with changed sections or loads. Elastic analysis only, not a code check: member buckling, connection design and code load combinations are not covered. Nothing is stored.
```

### `draft_project_request`

- The name "draft_project_request" says "request": 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
Prepare an e-mail to Structomat (info@structomat.com) describing a project, ready for the user to review and send. This tool sends nothing and stores nothing; it returns the draft text and a mailto link.
```

### `estimate_portal_frame_steel`

- 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
Steel tonnage estimate for a single-span pitched portal frame building (span 15-30 m) before any design: total tonnes, kg per m2 of floor, a range, the weight by part (frames, gable posts, bracing, eave struts, purlins, side rails, plates and connections) and typical member sizes. Interpolated between complete finite-element designs and calibrated against published designs. Use for budgets, tenders and feasibility; a real design needs the actual loads and code.
```

## Only reads (3)

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

### `find_examples`

- The name "find_examples" says "find": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search Structomat's published work: steel projects, case studies, example situations, checked steel connections, measured benchmarks (e.g. scan-to-BIM from a point cloud), sample deliverables (e.g. a complete US AISC shop drawing submittal with a clouded revision, or an erectability check that finds the pieces of a clash-free model that cannot get into place during erection) and free tools. Returns titles, links and short summaries.
```

### `get_connection`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Details of one connection from the Structomat steel connection library: members, plates, bolts, welds, design code and the utilisation of each component. Use find_examples with type "connection" to get slugs.
```

### `list_services`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Structomat services (analysis & design, connection design, shop drawings, erectability check of a steel model before erection, automation consulting, custom tools) with what the client sends and what comes back.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__steel__list_services",
      "mcp__steel__find_examples",
      "mcp__steel__get_connection"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__steel__about_structomat",
      "mcp__steel__estimate_portal_frame_steel",
      "mcp__steel__analyze_frame",
      "mcp__steel__draft_project_request"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

https://structomat.com/mcp/: tools/list returned 7 tools to an anonymous client, including about_structomat (write), estimate_portal_frame_steel (write), analyze_frame (write), draft_project_request (write)
