Findings

Matches of fixed checks, with the text they matched.

1 warn
  • The server marks "suggest_robots" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

    Matched text

    annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The description's first verb is "write": a word for a change.

  • check_robotsMatch a robots.txt file the caller pastes against Botcard's AI crawler tokens, using RFC 9309.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.
    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Match a robots.txt file the caller pastes against Botcard's AI crawler tokens, using RFC 9309. Each row is allow or disallow plus that token's vendor stance. This tool does not fetch any website. Do not send url, host, target, website, robots_url, or fetch.

    • Warn

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

      Matched text

      annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The description's first verb is "write": a word for a change.

      What this check looks for
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Write a robots.txt from this dataset for the kinds you allow or block. Each group cites the vendor page. effect request_only means the vendor does not say the crawler obeys that line. control_token is not training. The file has no User-agent: * group.

    Why it is in this group

    Description, as the server wrote it
    List the AI crawler robots.txt tokens in this dataset. Each row names the vendor page the summary was checked against. This tool does not fetch any website. Do not send url, host, target, website, robots_url, or fetch.

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.

Exfil surface

Which tools read private data, which read text someone else can write, and which can send data out. One of each is a path a prompt injection can use.

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

Reads private data0
Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories.
Reads text others write1
Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments.
Can send data out0
Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL.

Other servers in the same agent add their own tools to these paths. Audit your whole setup to see them together.

Install

Run in a terminal.

Claude Code permissions

Allow the reads, ask before a change or a way out, deny the deletes. Paste into .claude/settings.json.

.claude/settings.json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__botcard__list_crawlers",
      "mcp__botcard__get_crawler"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__botcard__check_robots",
      "mcp__botcard__suggest_robots"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}

Tools that only read are allowed, tools that change things ask first, tools that delete or cancel are denied. A read that can send data out (it takes a URL, say) asks first too. It assumes the server is installed as botcard. Review it before you use it.
