    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
    Compute readability scores for English text: Flesch Reading Ease, Flesch-Kincaid grade, Gunning Fog, SMOG, Coleman-Liau, ARI and a consensus grade, with plain-English interpretation, text statistics (words, sentences, syllables, reading and speaking time) and the sentences longer than a threshold. Read-only; the text is scored in memory and never stored or logged. Same engine as the PlainGrade JSON API (POST /v1/score).

    Annotations the server declares

    • title: Score readability
    • 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.
