## Findings

- **warn** Annotations that disagree with the tool in `open_template` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "open_template" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The name "open_template" says "open": a word for a change.
```


## Changes things (4)

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

### `code_to_flowchart`

- 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
Turn source code (C, C++, Java, Python or JavaScript, up to 80 lines) into a lab-record style flowchart where every box is linked to its code lines, plus a step-by-step dry run for a sample input (current line, box and variables at each step). Returns a link that opens it ready to play (▶ Explain), the program output and Mermaid code. Uses 1 AI credit.
```

### `create_diagram`

- The name "create_diagram" says "create": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Create a diagram in AI Flowchart from a plain-English description and get a link that opens it as an editable board (edit, present as an animated slideshow, export PNG/PDF/PowerPoint). Flowcharts, sequence diagrams and mind maps also come back as Mermaid code. Types: flowchart, mindmap, sequence (API / login flows), erdiagram (database), systemdesign (architecture), swimlane, bpmn (BPMN 2.0 business process), orgchart, uml_class, uml_usecase, uml_state, uml_activity, timeline, gantt (project plan), chart (bar/line/pie… from data you describe). Uses 1 AI credit; advanced types need AI Flowchart Pro.
```

### `open_template`

- The name "open_template" says "open": a word for a change.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get a link that opens one of the templates (from list_templates) as a new editable board. Free — no AI credits.
```

### `render_diagram`

- 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
Turn Mermaid diagram text into a hosted PNG and SVG image URL (cached on a CDN). Use it when a diagram has to go somewhere that cannot run Mermaid: email, Slack or Teams messages, PDFs, Word/Google Docs, Confluence, WhatsApp, a README. Returns the URLs plus ready-made Markdown and HTML. Free — no AI credits.
```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `list_templates`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List AI Flowchart's ready-made templates (lab programs, UML and ER for student projects, system designs, charts, app walkthroughs, code programs…). Free — no AI credits.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__diagrams__list_templates"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__diagrams__create_diagram",
      "mcp__diagrams__code_to_flowchart",
      "mcp__diagrams__open_template",
      "mcp__diagrams__render_diagram"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```
