## Exfil surface

4 private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound paths in this server alone. Denying 1 private-data tool breaks every one: `mcp__eyestill__read_with_eyestill`.

| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | `mcp__eyestill__read_with_eyestill` |
| untrusted-input | Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments. | `mcp__eyestill__eyestill_fetch_text` `mcp__eyestill__read_with_eyestill` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | `mcp__eyestill__eyestill_fetch_text` `mcp__eyestill__read_with_eyestill` |

| Private data | Untrusted input | Outbound |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `mcp__eyestill__read_with_eyestill` | `mcp__eyestill__eyestill_fetch_text` | `mcp__eyestill__eyestill_fetch_text` |
| `mcp__eyestill__read_with_eyestill` | `mcp__eyestill__eyestill_fetch_text` | `mcp__eyestill__read_with_eyestill` |
| `mcp__eyestill__read_with_eyestill` | `mcp__eyestill__read_with_eyestill` | `mcp__eyestill__eyestill_fetch_text` |
| `mcp__eyestill__read_with_eyestill` | `mcp__eyestill__read_with_eyestill` | `mcp__eyestill__read_with_eyestill` |

## Findings

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

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "read_with_eyestill" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

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


## Changes things (1)

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

### `read_with_eyestill`

- The name "read_with_eyestill" says "read": a word for reading.
- The description's first verb is "open": a word for a change.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "chat": it reads messages.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data. The description's first sentence says "open" and "chat": it reads messages, which other people can write. The input takes a URL (input.url), and the tool reads it: it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Opens text in EyeStill, a speed reader shown in the chat as an interactive view. The view shows one word at a time at a single point of focus (RSVP) on a 3D drum, with play, pause, speed (100 to 1,000 words per minute) and position controls. Takes exactly one of: url (a public web article, page or plain-text file; the server extracts its readable text), book (title and/or author of a public-domain book, fetched from Project Gutenberg), or text (any text, such as text from the conversation or an answer composed for reading in the view). Text is displayed while it streams in, so reading can start before it is complete. The text is shown only in the view; the result reports its title and word count. Plain prose reads best: Markdown, tables and code appear as raw text. A text can be opened at a word number (start_word, as reported by the reader's context) or at the first place a phrase appears, such as a chapter heading (start_at). While the user reads, the view shares the current position and passage as context.
```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `eyestill_fetch_text`

- The name "eyestill_fetch_text" says "fetch": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data. The input takes a URL (input.url), and the tool reads it: it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.
- Claude Code: ask, because it is tagged outbound.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Used by the EyeStill reader view to load the text of a page or book, or its next part.
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `eyestill`:

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__eyestill__read_with_eyestill",
      "mcp__eyestill__eyestill_fetch_text"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__eyestill__read_with_eyestill`: private-data, untrusted-input, outbound
- `mcp__eyestill__eyestill_fetch_text`: untrusted-input, outbound
