**4 tools: 2 change things and 2 only read.**

| Group | Class | Tools | Claude Code |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Deletes or cancels | destructive | 0 | deny |
| Can't be undone | irreversible | 0 | ask |
| Changes things | write | 2 | ask |
| Only reads | read | 2 | allow |

## 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__ribox__generate_qr` |

## Findings

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

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "generate_qr" 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 "generate_qr" says "generate": a word for a change.
```


## Changes things (2)

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

### `check_json`

- 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
Strictly validate JSON and report the exact line and column of the first error with a plain explanation, plus duplicate-key warnings and structure stats. Optionally pretty-print or minify without changing any value (big numbers keep full precision). Use this before claiming JSON is valid or when locating a syntax error in long JSON.
```

### `generate_qr`

- The name "generate_qr" says "generate": a word for a change.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a destination (input.phone): what the tool writes goes there. The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Create a standards-compliant QR code image for a link, text, Wi-Fi login, contact card (vCard), email, SMS, WhatsApp chat, phone number or map location. You cannot draw a scannable QR code yourself — always use this tool. Codes are static and never expire.
```

## Only reads (2)

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

### `count_text`

- The name "count_text" says "count": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Exact counts for a text: characters (with and without spaces, emoji counted as one), words, sentences, paragraphs, lines, UTF-8 bytes, plus reading and speaking time. Language models see text as tokens and miscount — never estimate counts or check length limits yourself; call this tool. Works for any language, including Chinese, Japanese, Arabic and Turkish.
```

### `diff_text`

- The name "diff_text" says "diff": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find every difference between two texts, line by line, word by word or character by character, and return counts plus a unified diff. Use this instead of comparing long texts yourself — small changes are easy to miss. Options to ignore whitespace and letter case.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__ribox__count_text",
      "mcp__ribox__diff_text"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__ribox__generate_qr",
      "mcp__ribox__check_json"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

Capability tags behind the rules (a read tagged outbound is asked about):

- `mcp__ribox__generate_qr`: outbound

## Remote posture

What an anonymous client saw at the remote endpoint, last 2026-10-22T14:50:30.819Z, unchanged since 2026-10-22T14:50:30.819Z. No credentials were sent and no tool was called. Values are shown as the endpoint returned them. Method: https://anlyon.dev/methodology#remote-posture

| Fact | Observed |

| Reachable | `yes` |
| HTTP status of an anonymous initialize | `200` |
| tools/list served without credentials | `yes` |
| Tools that change things, listed without credentials | `2` |
| Protocol version | `2025-06-18` |
| WWW-Authenticate on 401 | `not observed` |

| Dynamic client registration | `not observed` |
| Client ID metadata documents | `not observed` |

- **warn** 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 2 tools that change things (2 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://ribox.app/api/mcp: tools/list returned 4 tools to an anonymous client, including generate_qr (write), check_json (write)
