**3 tools: 1 change things and 2 only read.**

| Group | Class | Tools | Claude Code |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |

| Changes things | write | 1 | ask |
| Only reads | read | 2 | allow |

## Exfil surface

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

| 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. | `mcp__x402-snap__render_url` |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (1)

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

### `render_url`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- 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
Render any public URL in a real headless browser and get back a screenshot (PNG image), PDF, or the JavaScript-rendered HTML. Solves the empty-shell problem when plain HTTP fetches hit client-rendered pages. Paid: $0.02 per call in USDC on Base via the x402 protocol — call once without x_payment to receive the payment challenge.
```

## Only reads (2)

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

### `list_rank_categories`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List the currently available x402 service ranking categories. Free, no payment required.
```

### `rank_x402_services`

- The description's first verb is "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get a ranked list of the best x402 pay-per-call services for a task category (scored by price, usage volume, and recency, from the live Coinbase Bazaar feed). Use list_rank_categories first to see valid categories. Paid: $0.02 per call in USDC on Base via x402 — call once without x_payment to receive the payment challenge.
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `x402-snap`:

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__x402-snap__rank_x402_services",
      "mcp__x402-snap__list_rank_categories"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__x402-snap__render_url"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__x402-snap__render_url`: outbound

## Remote posture

What an anonymous client saw at the remote endpoint, last 2026-10-22T14:55:30.449Z, unchanged since 2026-10-22T14:55:30.449Z. No credentials were sent and no tool was called. Values are shown as the endpoint returned them. Method: https://anlyon.dev/methodology#remote-posture

| Fact | Observed |
| --- | --- |
| Reachable | `yes` |
| HTTP status of an anonymous initialize | `200` |
| tools/list served without credentials | `yes` |
| Tools that change things, listed without credentials | `1` |
| Protocol version | `2025-06-18` |
| WWW-Authenticate on 401 | `not observed` |
| resource_metadata in WWW-Authenticate | `none` |
| RFC 9728 protected resource metadata | `none` |
| Authorization servers | `none` |
| Legacy HTTP+SSE transport | `no` |
| Dynamic client registration | `not observed` |
| Client ID metadata documents | `not observed` |

- **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 1 tool that changes things (1 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://x402-snap.zaden-gaming.workers.dev/mcp: tools/list returned 3 tools to an anonymous client, including render_url (write)
```
