## 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__brinkeradvisor-rates__build_ladder` `mcp__brinkeradvisor-rates__compare_rates` `mcp__brinkeradvisor-rates__fetch` `mcp__brinkeradvisor-rates__mention_rates` `mcp__brinkeradvisor-rates__search` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | none |

## Findings

- **warn** Annotations that disagree with the tool in `search` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "search" as not read-only (readOnlyHint: false), and its words say it reads.

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":false,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":false,"openWorldHint":true}; The name "search" says "search": a word for reading.
```

- **warn** Annotations that disagree with the tool in `fetch` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "fetch" as not read-only (readOnlyHint: false), and its words say it reads.

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":false,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":false,"openWorldHint":true}; The name "fetch" says "fetch": a word for reading.
```


## Changes things (4)

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

### `build_ladder`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- 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
Build an educational equal-weight maturity ladder from current eligible public CD, money-market, Treasury, or municipal options for a requested rung count and term range. Every covered rung contains a canonical brinkeradvisor_url and an original source_name and source_url. Returns explicit uncovered rungs. This tool does not access accounts, trade, recommend a product, forecast rates or the economy, or provide suitability or tax advice.
```

### `compare_rates`

- The name "compare_rates" says "compare": a word for reading.
- The description's first verb is "create": a word for a change.
- 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
Create a bounded side-by-side comparison for an explicit comparison or contrast of current CD, money-market, Treasury, or municipal options with instrument and maturity filters. Returns applied filters, current options, and comparability limitations without selecting a winner. Every option contains a canonical brinkeradvisor_url and an original source_name and source_url. A request merely to find or list several matching records is outside this tool's comparison intent. Economic or Federal Reserve forecasts, account actions, personalized advice, tax advice, and suitability are outside this tool's scope.
```

### `fetch`

- The name "fetch" says "fetch": a word for reading.
- The server marks it as not read-only (readOnlyHint: false).
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Retrieve complete yield, term, freshness, canonical link, and original-source provenance for one current public BrinkerAdvisor record when its exact stable record ID is already supplied. Requires one known ID and returns one record. The top-level url is the canonical BrinkerAdvisor link; metadata.source_url is the distinct original-source link.
```

### `search`

- The name "search" says "search": a word for reading.
- The server marks it as not read-only (readOnlyHint: false).
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find or list one or more current public BrinkerAdvisor CD, money-market, Treasury, or municipal rate records by product, institution, term, or maturity when no exact stable record ID is supplied. Discovery of several matching records returns a list, not a side-by-side comparison. Returns stable IDs, titles, and absolute canonical BrinkerAdvisor URLs. Economic indicators or forecasts, unemployment, inflation, GDP, Federal Reserve or central-bank policy, news, general macroeconomic research, account access, transactions, personalized advice, tax advice, and suitability are outside this tool's scope.
```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `mention_rates`

- The description's first verb is "search": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data. The name "mention_rates" says "mention": it reads comments, which other people can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search current public rate records for the desktop composer resource picker.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__brinkeradvisor-rates__mention_rates"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__brinkeradvisor-rates__search",
      "mcp__brinkeradvisor-rates__fetch",
      "mcp__brinkeradvisor-rates__compare_rates",
      "mcp__brinkeradvisor-rates__build_ladder"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__brinkeradvisor-rates__search`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__brinkeradvisor-rates__fetch`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__brinkeradvisor-rates__compare_rates`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__brinkeradvisor-rates__build_ladder`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__brinkeradvisor-rates__mention_rates`: 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 4 tools that change things (4 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://mcp.brinkeradvisor.com/mcp: tools/list returned 5 tools to an anonymous client, including search (write), fetch (write), compare_rates (write), build_ladder (write)
