## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Can't be undone (1)

Sends, pays, publishes or merges: once done, it cannot be taken back. Claude Code: ask.

### `convert`

- The name "convert" says "convert": a word for a change.
- The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Convert an amount from one currency to another at the current rate. Indicative developer-grade reference rates (live market data + public reference rates), not for settlement or trading.
```

## Changes things (1)

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

### `start_checkout`

- The name "start_checkout" says "start": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Open a billing URL for an explicitly selected eligible plan. After human confirmation, a Free account without a subscription receives a one-hour Stripe Checkout URL; an existing subscriber receives Stripe billing management instead. Plans not offered to the account are refused. Cancellation creates nothing and account identifiers are never accepted from the model.
```

## Only reads (7)

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

### `get_official_rate`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get the exchange rate a government authority published for a date (tax, customs, central bank), with the period it is valid for. These are the published values, not market rates. Every plan gets the rate valid today; a past date needs a paid plan. Pairs the authority does not publish are refused.
```

### `get_range`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get a daily time-series of exchange rates over a date range (business days). Capped at 366 rows per call; when has_more is true, pass next_cursor as the cursor parameter to fetch the next page. Indicative developer-grade reference rates (live market data + public reference rates), not for settlement or trading.
```

### `get_rate`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get the current (or, with date, historical) exchange rate from one currency to another. Indicative developer-grade reference rates (live market data + public reference rates), not for settlement or trading. Rates update ~60s for real-time currencies through the trading week when the live feed is active; the source field on every response is the authoritative freshness indicator (live | ecb_daily | market_daily); rates fall back to official daily reference data during market closures or data-source unavailability. market_session on every response indicates open, weekend, or interbank_closed.
```

### `get_usd_index`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get the latest independently calculated USD index. dxy-reconstructed uses the published six-currency basket formula but is not the official index. usd-strength is the versioned exchangerate.dev equal-weight 13-currency index, with 2026-01-02 = 100. Both require a complete, time-aligned basket.
```

### `list_currencies`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List all supported currencies with name, decimal precision, minor units, and whether the pair is derived (triangulated). Use this before other tools to discover valid currency codes.
```

### `list_official_rate_tables`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List the countries and rate types with government-published exchange rates (for example IDN tax, GBR customs, USA government-reporting). Country codes are ISO 3166-1 alpha-3; use them with get_official_rate.
```

### `search_docs`

- The name "search_docs" says "search": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search the exchangerate.dev FAQ corpus via BM25. Returns the top-K matching questions and answers with relevance scores. Use before answering how-to / pricing / data-sourcing questions so you cite the canonical text instead of guessing from training data.
```
