## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (8)

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

### `facility_programs`

- The input takes a statement or command to run (input.code), which can change anything it can reach.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Cross-link a UI facility to the program(s) that implement it — 'what code runs this screen?'. Each program carries a match label: declared (named by the facility's menu entry, authoritative) or titleId (TITLE id equals the facility code). Complements lookup_facility (which gives the facility's tables and call graph). Metadata only — no source body.
```

### `facility_stats`

- 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
Overview of the Ross ERP 8.0 application layer — the client menu tree of UI facilities (screens, reports, inquiries, maintenance functions): total facilities, and their breakdown by system (e.g. ACCOUNTS_PAYABLE), database (FIN/MAN) and class (REPORT, MAINTENANCE, INQUIRY, ...). Use this first to orient before browsing facilities.
```

### `lookup_facility`

- The name "lookup_facility" says "lookup": a word for reading.
- The input takes a statement or command to run (input.code), which can change anything it can reach.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Full detail for one Ross ERP 8.0 UI facility by code: its name, system, database, class, GEMBASE program, help text, menu paths, the physical table cluster it touches — core (the working set the screen is built on) and reference (control/lookup tables) — and its call graph: the facilities this one invokes (calls) and the facilities that invoke it (calledBy), parsed from the program source.
```

### `program_facilities`

- 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
Reverse of facility_programs: which UI facilities (menu screens / reports / inquiries) a program backs — 'what screens does this program run?'. One program often serves several facilities. Lookup by TITLE id (e.g. AP_I_001) or basename (e.g. ap_i_vendors); each facility carries the same declared / titleId match label.
```

### `program_stats`

- 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
Overview of the Ross ERP 8.0 program catalog — every application-source program (metadata only, no source body): total programs, how many declare a TITLE id, how many carry Data Dictionary table links, total program→table edges, read/write counts (withWrites programs, writeEdges program→table write edges), base vs vendor-core split, program→program call-graph counts (programs with outbound calls, total call edges) and how many back a menu facility, plus the module and type breakdowns. Use this first to orient before browsing programs.
```

### `schema_stats`

- 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
Overview of the Ross ERP 8.0 schema in one call: object counts by type, module list, total/distinct columns, audit-twin pairs, and the top tables/columns/modules. Use this first to orient before drilling in.
```

### `table_facilities`

- 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
Reverse lookup: which UI facilities (screens/reports/programs) touch a given Ross ERP 8.0 table — split into core (facilities whose working set includes it) and reference (facilities that use it as a control/lookup), each with how many times the program source accesses it. Answers 'what screens read or write this table?'.
```

### `table_programs`

- 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
Reverse lookup: which standard Ross ERP 8.0 programs reference a given table (validated against the Data Dictionary). Answers 'what code touches this table?' — complements table_facilities (which answers 'what screens touch it?'). Metadata only — no source body.
```

## Only reads (13)

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

### `find_column`

- The name "find_column" says "find": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Look up a single column by exact name across the whole Ross ERP 8.0 schema: its description, valid values, notes, every table that carries it, and any foreign-key roles it plays.
```

### `get_ddl`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Return the CREATE TABLE (DDL) for a Ross ERP 8.0 table, with column descriptions as comments plus primary-key and foreign-key constraints.
```

### `graph_neighbors`

- The description's first verb is "list": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List the knowledge-graph neighbours of an object — the programs, tables, views and procedures directly connected to it, with relationship type and direction.
```

### `list_facilities`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Browse and filter Ross ERP 8.0 UI facilities (menu screens/functions). Filter by system, database, class, a name/code substring, or withTables (only facilities whose table cluster is known); paginate with limit/offset. Returns summaries — use lookup_facility for full detail.
```

### `list_objects`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Browse and filter Ross ERP 8.0 objects (tables / views / procedures / functions). Filter by type, database, module, or a name substring; paginate with limit/offset. Returns object summaries — use lookup_table for full detail.
```

### `list_programs`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Browse and filter Ross ERP 8.0 programs (application source, metadata only). Filter by module (ap, gl, ic, sop, ...), type (a=archive, i=inquiry, m=maintenance, r=report, s=server, l=load, u=utility, ...), layer (base | vendor-core), titled (only programs that declare a TITLE id), or a substring of basename/title; paginate with limit/offset. Returns summaries — use lookup_program for full detail.
```

### `lookup_program`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Full detail for one Ross ERP 8.0 program, by TITLE program-id (e.g. AP_A_002) or source basename (e.g. ap_a_check_register): its module, type, layer, declared title, internal PROCEDURE_FORM procedures, the Data Dictionary tables it references — each classified read vs read-write (a write is a FIND IN.../LOCK=WRITE update, an ADD, or a DELETE) with a writeCount — its call graph (the programs it invokes and the programs that invoke it, from PERFORM "GEM<mod>:<prog>"), the menu facilities it backs, and — for programs with no TITLE label — a display name carried from the menu facility's registry description. Metadata only — no source body.
```

### `lookup_table`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Full schema for a Ross ERP 8.0 object (table / view / procedure / function): columns with type, nullability, keys, descriptions and valid values, foreign keys in and out, related tables, and usage.
```

### `path_between`

- The description's first verb is "find": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find the shortest path between two objects in the Ross ERP 8.0 knowledge graph (how A reaches B through calls / references / accesses).
```

### `search_all`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Cross-domain search in one call — spans schema objects, columns, UI facilities and programs at once. Use this when you don't yet know which layer a term lives in (e.g. 'check register' is a screen, a program and a table). Scope to one layer with type = object | column | facility | program (default all); limit is per domain.
```

### `search_columns`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text

```

### `search_programs`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
