## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (1)

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

### `instant_answer`

- 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
DuckDuckGo Instant Answer API — definitions, entities, and quick facts. Returns a normalized answer with heading, type (abstract/answer/disambiguation), source, sourceUrl, optional image/definition, and relatedTopics, plus a meta envelope. Not a full web SERP; use web_search for that. Works with no API key.
```

## Only reads (2)

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

### `fetch_url`

- The name "fetch_url" says "fetch": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Fetches any public http(s) URL, strips boilerplate (scripts, nav, footer, ads), and returns clean text or markdown ready for an LLM context window. SSRF-guarded — refuses private/loopback/internal hosts. Returns url, title, format, length, content (and finalUrl when redirected, plus up to 50 extracted links when links=true), with a meta envelope. Works with no API key.
```

### `web_search`

- The name "web_search" says "search": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search the web via a provider-abstracted backend (Brave or Serper, configured operator-side). Returns normalized results, each with position, title, url, snippet, source, and domain, plus a meta envelope (cache state, provider, took_ms). Returns a provider_required error if no search provider key is configured upstream. Use this for a full web SERP; use instant_answer for quick facts/definitions.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__agentsearch__web_search",
      "mcp__agentsearch__fetch_url"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__agentsearch__instant_answer"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```
