## Findings

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

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "assay_get_ledger_policy" as not read-only (readOnlyHint: false), and its words say it reads.

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


## Changes things (4)

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

### `assay_get_ledger_policy`

- The name "assay_get_ledger_policy" says "get": a word for reading.
- The server marks it as not read-only (readOnlyHint: false).
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Retrieve historical conformance observations and manage pinned SHA-256 tools/list policy hashes in the Assay ledger for a target endpoint. When expected_tools_hash is provided, it pins that 64-hex digest as the target's baseline policy and compares it against the latest stored observation; when omitted, it returns the stored dossier and last 20 drift observations without network probing unless the target is unindexed. Idempotent; first 5 calls/IP are free. Use to audit historical drift or pin mcp-lock.json hashes; for live pre-execution gating use assay_preflight; for live re-indexing use assay_probe; for post-payment SLA receipts use assay_verify_delivery. Example: target='https://agentdiet-72343955726.us-central1.run.app/mcp'.
```

### `assay_preflight`

- 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
Gate a remote MCP, A2A, or x402 endpoint before calling or paying it by probing live JSON-RPC reachability, hashing tools/list (SHA-256), and scanning for prompt-injection poisoning. When expected_tools_hash is provided, any mismatch against the live tools/list digest forces verdict='deny' to block silent schema rug-pulls; when omitted, verdict reflects liveness and injection safety alone. Read-only gate; first 5 calls/IP are free and quota-exceeded calls return a 402 top-up prompt. Use before tool execution or payment; to register or refresh public leaderboard telemetry use assay_probe; to read or pin stored policy hashes use assay_get_ledger_policy; after payment use assay_verify_delivery. Example: target='https://agentdiet-72343955726.us-central1.run.app/mcp'.
```

### `assay_probe`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Register a new remote MCP, A2A, or x402 endpoint or refresh its public Assay Observatory dossier by running a live HTTP, agent-card, and JSON-RPC tools/list inspection without policy gating. Target must be a public HTTPS origin (private IPs are rejected with a 400 error); each call appends a timestamped observation and increments rug_pulls if tools_hash drifted since the prior stored observation. Writes to the public ledger; first 5 calls/IP are free and retries are idempotent on steady schemas. Use to onboard or re-index a server; for pre-call allow/deny gating use assay_preflight; for historical observations or hash pinning use assay_get_ledger_policy; for post-payment disputes use assay_verify_delivery. Example: target='https://agentdiet-72343955726.us-central1.run.app/mcp'.
```

### `assay_verify_delivery`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Audit a paid x402 or A2A provider after payment to confirm delivery or prove an SLA breach with an HMAC-SHA256 signed receipt. Passing status_code >= 500 forces verdict='sla_breach_confirmed' even if the live re-probe succeeds, while passing tx_hash cryptographically binds your Base or Solana payment signature into the receipt (omitting tx_hash still verifies liveness and issues a probe-bound receipt). Non-destructive; first 5 calls/IP are free and failed target connections do not throw tool errors. Use only after paying a provider; before payment use assay_preflight; for public indexing use assay_probe; for policy history use assay_get_ledger_policy. Example: target='https://agentdiet-72343955726.us-central1.run.app/mcp'.
```
