## Exfil surface

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

| 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. | `mcp__rank__account_status` `mcp__rank__compare_periods` `mcp__rank__dropped_pages` `mcp__rank__inspect_url` `mcp__rank__list_properties` `mcp__rank__performance_trends` `mcp__rank__quick_wins` `mcp__rank__top_pages` `mcp__rank__top_queries` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | none |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (3)

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

### `dropped_pages`

- 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.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Pages whose Search Console position got worse, whose clicks fell, or that disappeared from the current response. Does not invent zeros for pages the current response omitted.
```

### `performance_trends`

- 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.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Daily clicks, impressions, ctr, and position for a property. Each row is a date Search Console returned. Missing dates are not filled in, and ctr is the API fraction.
```

### `top_pages`

- 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.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Top pages for one property and date range. Metrics are copied from Search Console rows. ctr is the API fraction from 0 to 1. Omit dates to use the default 28-day window.
```

## Only reads (6)

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

### `account_status`

- The name "account_status" says "status": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Whether Google Search Console is connected, when the 14-day trial ends, and whether Pro access is active. Does not query Search Console and does not include a price.
```

### `compare_periods`

- The name "compare_periods" says "compare": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Compare two date ranges using the Search Console totals for a property (no dimension grouping). Reports both API metric objects. Differences are labeled as derived from those returned numbers. Omit compare dates to use the previous window of the same length.
```

### `inspect_url`

- The name "inspect_url" says "inspect": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data. The name "inspect_url" says "inspect" and "url": it reads web pages, which anyone can write. The description's first sentence says "url": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
URL Inspection status for one URL on a property you can access. Returns the Search Console inspection response, including verdict, coverage, and last crawl fields when the API sent them.
```

### `list_properties`

- The name "list_properties" says "list": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List the Search Console properties on the connected Google account. Returns siteUrl and permissionLevel exactly as the sites.list API returned them.
```

### `quick_wins`

- The description's first verb is "query": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Queries with high impressions and low ctr in Search Console. Defaults are at least 100 impressions and ctr at or below 0.02 (the API fraction, so 0.02 is 2%). Does not estimate missed clicks.
```

### `top_queries`

- The name "top_queries" says "query": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Top search queries for one property and date range. clicks, impressions, ctr, and position are copied from Search Console. ctr is a fraction from 0 to 1, not a percent. Omit dates to use the default 28-day window.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__rank__list_properties",
      "mcp__rank__top_queries",
      "mcp__rank__compare_periods",
      "mcp__rank__quick_wins",
      "mcp__rank__inspect_url",
      "mcp__rank__account_status"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__rank__top_pages",
      "mcp__rank__performance_trends",
      "mcp__rank__dropped_pages"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__rank__list_properties`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__rank__top_queries`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__rank__top_pages`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__rank__performance_trends`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__rank__compare_periods`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__rank__quick_wins`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__rank__dropped_pages`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__rank__inspect_url`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__rank__account_status`: untrusted-input

- **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 3 tools that change things (3 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://rank.ouroborosapps.com/mcp: tools/list returned 9 tools to an anonymous client, including top_pages (write), performance_trends (write), dropped_pages (write)
