## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (2)

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

### `forecast`

- The description's first verb is "submit": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Submit numeric observations to forecast future sampling steps. Spends credits on successful calls. Choose and retain idempotency_key before submitting; no automatic retries, replay depends on server retention. Minimal example: {mode: route, series: [{values: [10,12,11], freq: D}], horizon: 2, quantiles: [0.1,0.5,0.9]}. Returns forecasts and meta as before, plus artifact by default for describe_forecast/plot_forecast. Save the embedded JSON attachment: it includes full input history and local context; no hosted storage is created. Context never becomes a model input. Billing is at meta.billing in millicredit strings (100 mc = 0.1 credits). Missing future inputs mean not supplied, not no events. Quantile bands do not establish coverage, cumulative intervals or peak probabilities. After uncertain completion, reuse the same key and API request; an expired key may cause a new charge.
```

### `plot_forecast`

- 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:

```untrusted-server-text
Render a complete ephemeris.forecast v1 artifact object as PNG (default inline preview) or SVG (embedded resource to save). No inference or forecast charge; hosted processing receives the artifact over the network. Example: {artifact: <saved artifact>, format: png}. Requires returned q0.5; never invents a median. Observed history, forecast boundary, median and nominal quantile bands are labeled. Default history view is most recent max(24, 2*horizon) points, capped by available history; history: all shows all. Dates only when supported by recorded metadata, otherwise sampling steps. Bands do not establish calibrated coverage; missing/crossed points are omitted and counted. Maximum 1 MiB input. Select series_index/variate_index for multiple results. Fix argument/shape errors without rerunning inference. User-supplied labels can be corrected in a COPY of artifact context offline; no new forecast needed. Client decides preview/download UI. URNs identify attached bytes, not hosted URLs; no filesystem access, URL fetching or persistent storage.
```

## Only reads (5)

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

### `describe_forecast`

- The name "describe_forecast" says "describe": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Deterministic calculations from a complete ephemeris.forecast v1 artifact object, including CLI artifacts. No inference or forecast charge; this hosted tool still receives data over the network. Returns scope, result, basis, limitations and source pointers: last-observed baseline, median endpoint/change, marginal-median aggregates, and exact saved billing units. Missing medians/context remain unknown. Sum of medians only for period_total; it is not a cumulative-distribution interval or median. No calibrated coverage, causal explanation, path/peak probability, or business action is inferred. Example: pass {artifact: <forecast result artifact>}; choose series_index/variate_index for multiple results. Maximum 1 MiB; malformed/version/shape errors are recoverable by fixing the artifact or using CLI, never rerunning inference. Missing labels may be corrected in a COPY of context without changing request/response. No filesystem access, URL fetches, persistent storage, Gnomon import, or scoring.
```

### `get_balance`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Return the account's spendable credit balance in millicredits, excluding credits reserved by in-progress forecasts. 1000 millicredits equal one credit.
```

### `get_usage`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Return the account's forecast request log, newest first, with the mode, models used, series count, horizon, credits estimated and settled, HTTP status and latency of each request.
```

### `get_version`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read this deployed MCP server's version, nullable build commit and supported saved forecast schema versions. Call with {}. No API key, account access, inference, charges or writes; network access to this server only. Returns component, version, build_commit (full source SHA or null when unavailable), and artifact_schema_versions. Unknown commit stays null. Server, CLI, npm bridge and artifact schema versions are independent; this tool cannot inspect local installations, check the latest registry release or establish model quality. Use list_models for live model capabilities. After a connection failure reconnect and retry; no forecast could have been submitted by this tool.
```

### `list_models`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Discover the model panel: each model's availability right now (healthy), capabilities (multivariate, covariates, max_horizon, auto_max_horizon), its weight in an ensemble at each horizon, pinned and actually served weight revision, price in millicredits per series-slot per 64 forecast steps. History length has no billing multiplier. Call this before using forecast in explicit mode; the deployed panel can differ from any documentation.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__ephemeris__get_version",
      "mcp__ephemeris__describe_forecast",
      "mcp__ephemeris__list_models",
      "mcp__ephemeris__get_balance",
      "mcp__ephemeris__get_usage"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__ephemeris__plot_forecast",
      "mcp__ephemeris__forecast"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```
