## Findings

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"openWorldHint":true}; The name "start_pass_purchase" says "start": a word for a change.
```

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

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

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


## Changes things (10)

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

### `best_low_tides`

- 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 lowest daylight low tides over the next days (default 30, up to 90 with a pass key), marking the good ones for clamming, foraging and tide pools.
```

### `coast_map_pass`

- 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
What the Coast Map Pass adds over the free map (offline regions for trips with no signal; longer tide and current ranges for assistants), its prices (CA$5 a month or CA$55 a year), whether it is on sale yet, and the purchase or support links. Covers offline use, longer tide ranges and upgrading.
```

### `currents`

- 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
Slack water and maximum flood/ebb times and speeds at a current station, in local time. Up to 7 days free; longer with a Coast Map Pass key.
```

### `marine_forecast`

- 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
Hourly wind and gusts (knots), direction, temperature, rain, fog and thunder risk for the next 48 hours, plus wave height and period, from Environment Canada (HRDPS/GDWPS), the US National Weather Service or MET Norway.
```

### `marine_warnings`

- 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
Marine warnings (gale, storm, small craft…) in effect for the marine forecast area at a point.
```

### `pass_status`

- The name "pass_status" says "status": a word for reading.
- The server marks it as not read-only (readOnlyHint: false).
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Checks whether the payment for a purchase reference has completed. Returns pending (with a retry interval) or paid with the pass key, which is sent as "Authorization: Bearer <key>" from then on, plus a link that activates the pass in the user's own map.
```

### `plan_paddle`

- 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
One call that answers "what will the water be like at this spot?": the nearest tide station with 2 days of highs and lows, currents nearby, the next 24 h of wind, gusts and waves with the maxima, warnings in effect, water temperature and sunrise/sunset, with the important heads_up lines listed first.
```

### `start_pass_purchase`

- The name "start_pass_purchase" says "start": 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
Begin a Coast Map Pass purchase without leaving the conversation: returns checkout links (CA$5 a month or CA$55 a year, Stripe, no account) tagged with a purchase reference, or says the pass is not on sale yet. The user pays in their browser; the reference identifies that payment afterwards.
```

### `tide_times`

- 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
High and low tides with heights, in the station's local time. Up to 7 days ahead free; longer ranges (up to 90 days) need the user's Coast Map Pass key.
```

### `water_temperature`

- 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
Water temperature from the nearest buoy within 40 km, otherwise satellite sea surface temperature.
```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `find_stations`

- The name "find_stations" says "find": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Nearest tide stations (high/low times) and current stations (slack water, max flood/ebb) to a point, with distance and time zone. Coverage: Canada, the US, Norway, Ireland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Australia (Queensland) and modelled tides elsewhere.
```
