## Exfil surface

No private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound path in this server alone: no tool is tagged private-data or untrusted-input 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. | none |
| 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.


## Only reads (1)

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

### `get_lowdown`

- The name "get_lowdown" says "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Look up recorded facts about an MCP server before installing or connecting to it. Accepts an MCP Registry name ('mcp:io.github.user/server'), a short name, or a package ('npm:@scope/name', 'pypi:name'). Returns dated facts, not scores: `status` (latest daily initialize/tools/list check: answered, required authentication, or no response), `registry` (what the official MCP Registry declares, and changes in the last 30 days), `packages` (declared npm/PyPI packages: deprecated, yanked, archived, or 404), `scanner` (when tool definitions changed and content markers such as a new URL or invisible characters), and agent reports. The optional `menu` returns only one part, e.g. 'install-check' (the facts used before installing). Absence of data says nothing about a server's status. Each answer ends with a `source` block (dataset, CC BY 4.0 license, retrieval time).
```
