## Findings

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":true}; The name "aimrank_create_share_card" says "create": a word for a change.
```


## Changes things (4)

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

### `aimrank_create_share_card`

- The name "aimrank_create_share_card" says "create": 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
Return share-ready URLs + embed snippets for a ranking.

Formats: "all" (default — everything), "twitter", "linkedin",
"embed_leaderboard", "embed_vote", "badge_markdown", "qr_code",
"data_card". Pass these to a human to paste into a tweet, blog,
Notion page, or Slack message. The OG image renders automatically
when the public_url is unfurled by Twitter / LinkedIn / Slack.

api_key is optional on the public endpoint; on /mcp/mcp a missing
key is refused.
```

### `aimrank_healthcheck`

- 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
iCOMPLY contract: liveness + DB-connectivity probe.
```

### `aimrank_predict`

- 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
iCOMPLY contract: pairwise prediction with provenance fields.

Returns the engine's predicted winner + probability shaped so
iCOMPLY's Annex IV section-4 generator can ingest the response
directly. See [iCOMPLY_INTEGRATION_STRATEGY.md] for the contract.

api_key is optional on the public endpoint; on /mcp/mcp a missing
key is refused.
```

### `aimrank_predict_matchup_winner`

- 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
Predict the winner of a matchup BEFORE a vote is cast.

Uses Glicko-2 win probability under the same formula matchmaking
uses internally. Pairs with aimrank_submit_vote for the
"Claude predicts, you vote, we compare" demo. Does not record
a vote — read-only.

api_key is optional on the public endpoint; on /mcp/mcp a missing
key is refused.
```

## Only reads (17)

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

### `aimrank_discover_public_rankings`

- The description's first verb is "browse": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Browse public rankings — agent equivalent of surfing aimrank.io.

Filters: category, media_type ("text" | "image" | "audio" | "video"),
sort ("trending" | "recent" | "most_votes" | "random"), limit 1-50.
Each result embeds share assets so the agent can hand any ranking
back to the user as a clickable link without a follow-up call.

api_key is optional on the public endpoint; on /mcp/mcp a missing
key is refused.
```

### `aimrank_explain`

- The name "aimrank_explain" says "explain": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
iCOMPLY contract: explain a prediction in features + narrative.

Returns the Glicko-2 μ/φ inputs for both entities + a deterministic
narrative. No LLM-synthesised rationale — these are the actual
numbers the math uses, which is exactly what an Annex IV auditor
needs to trace.

api_key is optional on the public endpoint; on /mcp/mcp a missing
key is refused.
```

### `aimrank_find_similar_domains`

- The name "aimrank_find_similar_domains" says "find": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find public domains most similar to a query or a known domain.

Use ``query`` for free-text search ("pharma evaluation") OR
``domain_id`` to find domains similar to one you already know.
Exactly one must be provided.

TF-IDF + cosine similarity over name + description + category +
declared constitution + objectives text. Cheap (no embedding API
calls), 5-minute in-process cache. Only public domains are
searched / returned. Score in [0, 1] — typical "useful match"
threshold is ≥0.15; "near duplicate" is ≥0.5.

api_key is optional on the public endpoint; on /mcp/mcp a missing
key is refused.
```

### `aimrank_get_agreement`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Inter-annotator agreement — Layer 5. Returns Cohen's κ
(n=2 raters), Fleiss' κ, Krippendorff's α, Scott's π +
Landis-Koch interpretation, plus the multi-rater coverage report.

`min_raters` overrides the ranking's configured min_raters_per_pair.

api_key is optional on the public endpoint; on /mcp/mcp a missing
key is refused.
```

### `aimrank_get_ceiling`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Pairwise-κ ceiling from qualification attempts. The upper
bound any judge / RM can credibly hit on this domain — used to
pin the L3 pilot refund clause (refund if κ < ceiling - 5pp).

api_key is optional on the public endpoint; on /mcp/mcp a missing
key is refused.
```

### `aimrank_get_crowd_bt`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
CrowdBT — joint fit of entity scores + per-annotator
reliability η. Surfaces noisy / anti-correlated raters
explicitly. Methodology audit, not a live engine.

api_key is optional on the public endpoint; on /mcp/mcp a missing
key is refused.
```

### `aimrank_get_daily_pair`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Fetch today's Daily Pair — the trending matchup chosen at 00:00 UTC.

Pairs with the `vote_of_the_day` agent template. Returns the challenge
+ a fresh matchup. If the cron hasn't run yet, falls back via
ok=False so the agent can use `aimrank_get_matchup` instead.

api_key is optional on the public endpoint; on /mcp/mcp a missing
key is refused.
```

### `aimrank_get_data_card`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Auto data card — Layer 7. Provenance + IAA + coverage +
per-annotator quality + transitivity + qualification stats in
one synthesized markdown audit artefact.

Format: 'markdown' (default) or 'json' for structured summary.

api_key is optional on the public endpoint; on /mcp/mcp a missing
key is refused.
```

### `aimrank_get_domain`

key is refused.
```

### `aimrank_get_plackett_luce`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Plackett-Luce listwise ranking aggregation — OFFLINE AUDIT ONLY.

Reported post-hoc; it NEVER writes ratings, and setting it as a
ranking's algorithm returns 400. AimRank has 6 rating engines plus
2 offline aggregators (this and CrowdBT) — never describe it as an
8th rating algorithm.

Generalises Bradley-Terry to ranked lists. On pairwise data,
collapses to BT MLE — useful as a second-opinion aggregator.

api_key is optional on the public endpoint; on /mcp/mcp a missing
key is refused.
```

### `aimrank_list_public_judges`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Browse public judge-prompt artifacts shared by other users.

Filter by ``category`` (free-text), ``domain_id``, or both.
Sort options: ``fork_count`` (default — most-forked first),
``recent``, ``faithfulness``.

Returns artifact summaries WITHOUT the full prompt text — call
`aimrank_fork_judge_prompt` or the REST GET to retrieve the
full prompt before using it.

api_key is optional on the public endpoint; on /mcp/mcp a missing
key is refused.
