## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Can't be undone (1)

Sends, pays, publishes or merges: once done, it cannot be taken back. Claude Code: ask.

### `request_callback`

- The name "request_callback" says "request": a word for a change.
- The description's first verb is "send": a word for sending, and what is sent cannot be taken back.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Sends a business owner's finance enquiry to a licensed Switchboard Finance broker, who contacts them by phone, SMS and email. Requires consent: true, meaning the person has agreed to this wording: "I agree to Switchboard Finance contacting me about this enquiry by phone, SMS and email, including follow-up emails I can unsubscribe from at any time." Returns a reference number and the expected contact time. Nothing is applied for and no credit check is run. Retries with the same idempotency_key return the original reference instead of creating a second enquiry.
```

## Changes things (1)

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

### `check_fit`

- 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
Checks whether an Australian business owner's finance need is something Switchboard Finance, a licensed finance broker, can help with, and which finance types fit. Covers ATO or tax debt, bank declines, caveat and second mortgages, private and commercial property loans, development, equipment and vehicles, invoice finance, overdrafts, bad credit and going-concern businesses such as motels. With amount, property value, timing and trading history it also checks loan size, LVR and time to fund against observed ranges, and returns documents usually needed, deal-breakers and an expected callback time. Example: {"purpose":"clear a $180k ATO debt this week","security":"warehouse worth $1.2M, $400k owing","amount":180000,"property_value":1200000,"existing_debt":400000}. General information, not a credit decision or advice.
```

## Only reads (3)

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

### `fetch`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Returns the full text of one Switchboard Finance document by its id, with its source URL for citation. Example: {"id":"lane:caveat"}.
```

### `list_products`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Lists the types of business finance Switchboard Finance arranges for self-employed Australians and ABN holders, with observed loan sizes, time to fund, maximum LVR and rate ranges across its lender panel. Pass lane for one type's full criteria (security, LVR, trading history, ATO position, deal-breakers, documents, pricing, term). Example: {"lane":"caveat"}. Category-level only; no lender is named.
```

### `search`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Searches Switchboard Finance's published information on Australian business finance types, criteria and licensing. Returns ids, titles and source URLs for citation. Example: {"query":"second mortgage LVR for a trust"}.
```
