Changes things 1Claude Code: ask
  • about_this_serverWhat this MCP server is, what each access tier includes, and how to obtain access.1 finding

    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.

    Findings

      The description mentions "credentials".

      What this check looks for
    Description, as the server wrote it
    What this MCP server is, what each access tier includes, and how to obtain access. Call this first if you are unsure what the server offers, or after any tool refuses you — the refusal names a tier, and this tool explains what that tier costs and what it adds. Requires no credentials.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_legislation" says "get": a word for reading.

      What this check looks for
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Retrieve one act by CELEX ID, Lex-Ray ID, nickname, or uk-/eu- prefix. 'meta' is the bibliographic record (titles, dates, Official Journal reference, EuroVoc concepts, amendments and relationships to other acts) and needs no credentials. 'data' adds the parsed legal content — recitals, articles, annexes, definitions — and 'full' adds the rendered HTML. Every level carries a currency block: the day the answer was computed for, the commencement state on that day, and which version of the act is in force. Every answer also carries `pending_amendments`: proposals that propose to amend this act, each labelled in_flight / concluded / unknown, stamped with the reading date it was resolved against. These are PROPOSED, not enacted — never quote one as law.

      description: "...re calling the other tools. Requires no credentials."

      What this check looks for
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Find EU legislation and UK legislation by keyword, acronym (GDPR, DORA, AIA), the common name practitioners use ('Market Abuse Regulation', 'MLRs', 'UK GDPR'), CELEX ID or Lex-Ray id. Matching is case-insensitive and an exact name ranks ahead of partial title matches. Returns an envelope whose 'matches' array carries the bibliographic record for each match — titles, id, jurisdiction (eu/uk), Official Journal reference, dates — plus a currency block giving the commencement state as at today, so a match that is expired or not yet applying says so rather than reading as current law. When several instruments share the exact name searched, 'ambiguous' is true and 'disambiguation' lists them: choose by jurisdiction and title rather than taking the first. When a curated common name settles it, 'preferred' names that act and 'alternatives' the others sharing the name. Use this to resolve a name to an id before calling the other tools. Requires no credentials.

    • readOnlyHint: true
    • destructiveHint: 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.
