## Exfil surface

6 private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound paths in this server alone. Denying 1 outbound tool breaks every one: `mcp__frontmcp__whats_changed`.

| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | `mcp__frontmcp__get_example` `mcp__frontmcp__get_page` `mcp__frontmcp__get_skill` `mcp__frontmcp__get_versions` `mcp__frontmcp__list_pages` `mcp__frontmcp__search_docs` |
| untrusted-input | Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments. | `mcp__frontmcp__get_versions` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | `mcp__frontmcp__whats_changed` |

| Private data | Untrusted input | Outbound |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `mcp__frontmcp__get_example` | `mcp__frontmcp__get_versions` | `mcp__frontmcp__whats_changed` |
| `mcp__frontmcp__get_page` | `mcp__frontmcp__get_versions` | `mcp__frontmcp__whats_changed` |
| `mcp__frontmcp__get_skill` | `mcp__frontmcp__get_versions` | `mcp__frontmcp__whats_changed` |

## Findings

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true}; The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.
```


## Can't be undone (1)

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

### `whats_changed`

- The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a destination (input.to): what the tool writes goes there.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
What changed in FrontMCP after `from` up to `to` (the endpoint's version by default): each release's notes, every note the docs make about a change ("Changed in 1.9.5: before, …"), with its page and section, and, when both versions are documented, which pages changed. `from` can be any release, documented or not. Use it to upgrade a project, or to check whether docs for one version hold for another.
```

## Only reads (8)

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

### `get_example`

- The name "get_example" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "return" and "doc": it reads documents.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Returns a runnable example from a FrontMCP docs page: the files of one of its Playgrounds, with their tests, as the docs run them. Without `index`, lists the page's Playgrounds (numbered from 1, in page order) with their section and files.
```

### `get_page`

- The name "get_page" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "return" and "doc": it reads documents.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Returns a FrontMCP docs page as Markdown, or one section of it. `path` is a path (/reference/sdk/tool), a frontmcp.dev URL, or an old docs.agentfront.dev URL, which is mapped to its page here; a #anchor in it, or `section`, picks the section. A very long page comes back as its introduction and its sections, to read one at a time. Use it once search_docs, lookup_api or list_pages has given a path, or for a docs URL you already have. The page is the one documented for `version`.
```

### `get_skill`

- The name "get_skill" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The input names a file (input.file), and the tool reads: it reads files.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
FrontMCP's skills catalog (@frontmcp/skills): instructions for building with FrontMCP, from setting up a project to production readiness. Without `name`, lists the skills. With `name`, returns its SKILL.md and the reference files beside it; with `file` too, that file. Skills are step-by-step guides written for coding agents: for the docs themselves use search_docs or get_page, and for runnable code get_example. The catalog is the newest FrontMCP release's, so the tool takes no version.
```

### `get_versions`

- The name "get_versions" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "list" and "doc": it reads documents.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "list" and "http": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Lists the FrontMCP releases these docs cover, newest first, each with its release notes and the endpoint that pins it (https://mcp.frontmcp.dev/<version>). Says which version this endpoint serves. To find the version a project uses, call resolve_version.
```

### `list_pages`

- The name "list_pages" says "list": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "list" and "doc": it reads documents.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Lists the FrontMCP docs as the site's sidebar has them, in reading order: Learn (lessons), Reference (APIs, options, deployment), Examples and Compare, each in groups of pages with their titles and paths. Use it to browse, or to find a page by topic when you don't know its name; to find something specific, search_docs or lookup_api is faster. Read a page it lists with get_page. The pages are those of `version`.
```

### `lookup_api`

- The name "lookup_api" says "lookup": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Finds a FrontMCP API by name in the Reference pages: a decorator (`@Tool`), function or method (`createFetchHandler`, `this.elicit`), option (`inputSchema`, `throttle`), error code (`TOOL_NOT_FOUND`), CLI command or flag (`--target`). Returns the matching entries, most relevant first, each with what the docs say, its page and anchor. Read more with get_page.
```

### `resolve_version`

- The name "resolve_version" says "resolve": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Says which documented FrontMCP version a project should read, and the endpoint that pins it. Pass the project's package.json, its lockfile (package-lock.json, yarn.lock or pnpm-lock.yaml; the part about @frontmcp/sdk is enough), or a version range. A lockfile gives the installed version; package.json only the range it allows. Call it first when you can read the project.
```

### `search_docs`

- The name "search_docs" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The name "search_docs" says "search" and "doc": it reads documents. The description's first sentence says "doc": it reads documents.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Full-text search over the FrontMCP docs, by section: page titles, section headings and prose. Returns up to `limit` sections, best first, each with its page, heading, path (with the #anchor) and the start of its text. Read one with get_page. For an API, option or error code by name, lookup_api is more precise.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__frontmcp__get_example",
      "mcp__frontmcp__get_page",
      "mcp__frontmcp__get_skill",
      "mcp__frontmcp__get_versions",
      "mcp__frontmcp__list_pages",
      "mcp__frontmcp__lookup_api",
      "mcp__frontmcp__resolve_version",
      "mcp__frontmcp__search_docs"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__frontmcp__whats_changed"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

## Remote posture

| tools/list served without credentials | `yes` |
| Tools that change things, listed without credentials | `1` |

- **high** 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 1 tool that changes things (1 irreversible). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://mcp.frontmcp.dev/: tools/list returned 9 tools to an anonymous client, including whats_changed (irreversible)
