## Exfil surface

No private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound path in this server alone: no tool is tagged private-data or untrusted-input.

| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | none |
| untrusted-input | Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments. | none |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | `mcp__accounting__send_invoice` |

| Fact | Observed |

| HTTP status of an anonymous initialize | `200` |
| tools/list served without credentials | `yes` |

- **high** Tools that change things, listed to anyone ([unauth-remote-writes](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#unauth-remote-writes))

```untrusted-server-text
The endpoint served tools/list without credentials, and the list has 9 tools that change things (1 irreversible, 8 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://xero.api.ainode.tech/mcp: tools/list returned 9 tools to an anonymous client, including send_invoice (irreversible), health (write), reconcile_transactions (write), confirm_reconciliation (write), categorise_expenses (write) and 4 more
