    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
    Ask HenryKnows a question about F-1/J-1 student immigration, SEVIS, OPT, CPT or related rules and get a cited answer. Ask in the person's own terms; do not add identifiers. Answers take 10–40 seconds.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Connect to the HenryKnows page the person is watching (turns its light green) and get the session to pass on later calls. Call this first if the person gave you a session code; otherwise it is optional — ask_henry and search_sources connect too.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "search_sources" says "search": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Search HenryKnows' knowledge base (regulations, SEVP/USCIS guidance, Federal Register rules) and get the matching passages with their source links, so you can read and cite the text yourself. Fast; no model call.

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.
