Changes things 1Claude Code: ask
  • check_balanceHow many credits this API key has left, what each kind of read costs, and where to buy more (links need no sign-in; the credit pack takes Alipay).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
    How many credits this API key has left, what each kind of read costs, and where to buy more (links need no sign-in; the credit pack takes Alipay). Without a key it returns the prices and how to get a key. Call it before a batch of reads, or when digest_url says credits ran out.

    Annotations the server declares

    • title: Credits left and what a read costs
    • readOnlyHint: true
    • destructiveHint: false
    • idempotentHint: true
    • openWorldHint: false
Only reads 4Claude Code: allow
  • digest_urlRead what a social media link actually says.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "read": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Read what a social media link actually says. Works on Xiaohongshu, Douyin, TikTok, YouTube, X and ordinary web pages. Returns the post's transcript with times, on-screen text, the text in every image, caption and counts, key points each backed by a quote checked against the post (`key_point_support` in json), and a receipt of what was read (`coverage` in json). Bilibili, Instagram and Facebook are not supported. Works without an API key for a first look (a summary, two a day per address); the full output needs a key — see check_balance. If the result names a job id, call again with job_id only. Example: url="https://v.douyin.com/abc/", ask="推荐了什么产品、多少钱？".

    Annotations the server declares

    • title: Read a social media post as text
    • readOnlyHint: true
    • destructiveHint: false
    • idempotentHint: false
    • openWorldHint: true
  • list_batchesThe last batches on this API key, newest first — including the ones the browser extension's “Digest the notes on this page” button started from the user's own Xiaohongshu or Douyin…No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "list_batches" says "list": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    The last batches on this API key, newest first — including the ones the browser extension's “Digest the notes on this page” button started from the user's own Xiaohongshu or Douyin tab. Each line: batch_id, label, created, status done/total, credits, synthesis (ready, pending, failed or none). Pass a batch_id to compare_links to read the comparison. Starts nothing, costs nothing. Needs an API key.

    Annotations the server declares

    • title: This account's last batches
    • readOnlyHint: true
    • destructiveHint: false
    • idempotentHint: true
    • openWorldHint: false

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.
