Claude Code: ask. ### `add_project_data` - The name "add_project_data" says "add": a word for a change. - Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Add data to a project from a public download link (GeoPackage, zipped Shapefile, GeoJSON, KML, CSV with coordinates or GeoTIFF, up to 200 MB): your own model's output, a survey, a map. Biohotspot reads and checks it; follow its status with project_data and finish anything it asks for in the project's Uploads tab. Needs owner or editor rights. ``` ### `look_here` - 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 Every map layer with data within `km` of a point: habitats, wildlife, human uses, protected areas and world ocean maps. Start here to learn what a place holds. ``` ### `look_in_area` - 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 Every map layer with data inside a polygon. ``` ### `marine_park` - 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 Facts about an Australian marine park from its Biohotspot page: area, IUCN categories and named zones (CAPAD 2024), habitats, blue carbon and pressures measured inside it, each with its source and licence, and the page's address. Give part of the park's name; `state` (wa, qld, nsw, vic, sa, tas, nt, com for Commonwealth waters) narrows it. Several matches return the list to choose from. ``` ### `project_data` - 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 The data a project's team added, with each file's status (receiving, checked, ready, failed). ``` ### `simulate` - The description's first verb is "run": a word for a change. - The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class. - Findings: warn annotation-conflict Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Run the optimiser (Marxan) on the planning data (the example project Exmouth Gulf): the cheapest set of planning squares that meets every habitat target. `protect` = planning-square ids always included (understand_area returns them as `pus`); `target_pct` = one target for every habitat, in %. ``` ### `understand_area` - 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 Which habitats an area holds, how much of each, and how far that goes toward each habitat's protection target. Give a polygon, or a point and radius. Outside Biohotspot's local planning data the answer comes from world maps (rough: true). ``` ## Only reads (5) Looks things up and changes nothing. Claude Code: allow. ### `find_layers` - The name "find_layers" says "find": 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 Search Biohotspot's 1,600+ world layers by words (e.g. 'seagrass', 'coral bleaching'). Returns ids, names, categories and licences; vector layers can be read with get_features. ``` ### `get_features` - The name "get_features" says "get": 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 A layer's features as GeoJSON from the OGC API (the address QGIS uses), optionally inside a bounding box [west, south, east, north]. Collection ids: find_layers ids, or exmouth_ for the example project's open layers. ``` ### `get_project` - The name "get_project" says "get": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text One project: its area (GeoJSON), its data check (each data type covered, partial or missing) and your role. ``` ### `list_projects` - The name "list_projects" says "list": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Your projects and the ones shared with you: name, area, your role and how complete their data is. ``` ### `search_papers` - The name "search_papers" says "search": a word for reading. - Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "mention": it reads comments, which other people can write. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Research papers and reports in Biohotspot's library that mention the words. ``` ## Claude Code permissions For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `biohotspot`: ```json { "permissions": { "allow": [ "mcp__biohotspot__find_layers", "mcp__biohotspot__get_features", "mcp__biohotspot__search_papers", "mcp__biohotspot__list_projects", "mcp__biohotspot__get_project" ], "ask": [ "mcp__biohotspot__look_here", "mcp__biohotspot__look_in_area", "mcp__biohotspot__understand_area", "mcp__biohotspot__simulate", "mcp__biohotspot__marine_park", "mcp__biohotspot__project_data", "mcp__biohotspot__add_project_data" ], "deny": [] } } ``` Capability tags behind the rules (a read tagged outbound is asked about): - `mcp__biohotspot__look_here`: untrusted-input - `mcp__biohotspot__look_in_area`: untrusted-input - `mcp__biohotspot__understand_area`: untrusted-input - `mcp__biohotspot__find_layers`: untrusted-input - `mcp__biohotspot__get_features`: untrusted-input - `mcp__biohotspot__search_papers`: untrusted-input - `mcp__biohotspot__add_project_data`: outbound
