Claude Code: ask. ### `researchpilot_build_collection_recipe` - 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 Build a reproducible collection plan for YouTube metadata, web text, legal references, data APIs, or a bounded text corpus. This returns a plan only and never claims collection occurred. ``` ### `researchpilot_check_method` - 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 Check one ResearchPilot capability by canonical capability ID and distinguish discussion/planning, direct execution, certified core, registered engine, and specialist handoff. ``` ### `researchpilot_content_analysis_template` - The description's first verb is "create": 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 Create a bounded content-analysis codebook and validation skeleton with sampling/coding/context units, category contracts, pilot coding and human/AI validation requirements. Categories remain researcher proposals. ``` ### `researchpilot_open_workspace` - The name "researchpilot_open_workspace" says "open": 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 Open the interactive ResearchPilot workspace when the user wants to select a project, inspect method capability, review research context, or edit an instruction before continuing in the host AI conversation. ``` ### `researchpilot_prepare_specialist_execution` - 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 Prepare a rigorous specialist execution request bound to the authenticated project, exact ResearchContext digest, capability authority, and input artifact digests. This does not execute the analysis or transfer local raw files. ``` ### `researchpilot_record_routing_feedback` - Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Record explicit user feedback about a ResearchPilot capability/tool outcome. Call only when the user explicitly accepts, rejects, corrects, or reports failure/success. Do not store the user's full research question or source text. ``` ### `researchpilot_save_work_artifact` - The name "researchpilot_save_work_artifact" says "save": a word for a change. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Save a substantive project-specific plan, interpretation, critique, draft, or specialist result as a non-canonical WORKING artifact. Use for durable ResearchPilot continuity; this never accepts a research decision or authorizes execution. ``` ### `researchpilot_text_analysis_pilot` - The description's first verb is "create": 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 Create a bounded text-analysis pilot package: collection recipe, codebook skeleton, corpus manifest, pilot/validation plan, AG-UI state, and specialist handoff route. Design only; no coding or validation is claimed. ``` ### `researchpilot_update_user_preferences` - The name "researchpilot_update_user_preferences" says "update": a word for a change. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Update bounded ResearchPilot working/writing preferences only when the user explicitly states a stable preference. These preferences affect presentation/workflow, never scientific authority or method validity. ``` ## Only reads (14) Looks things up and changes nothing. Claude Code: allow. ### `researchpilot_capabilities` - The description's first verb is "read": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Read canonical ResearchPilot capability authority. Use this before claiming that ResearchPilot can directly execute a research method. ``` ### `researchpilot_get_profile` - The name "researchpilot_get_profile" says "get": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Return the authenticated ResearchPilot user profile for the current OAuth connection. Use only for user identity/personalization, not as research evidence. ``` ### `researchpilot_get_project_context` - The name "researchpilot_get_project_context" says "get": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Read one authenticated user's cloud ResearchPilot project state: research question, decisions, analysis/result summaries, stale state, source identities/digests and local-artifact availability. Raw local research files are intentionally absent. ``` ### `researchpilot_get_user_memory` - The name "researchpilot_get_user_memory" says "get": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Read the authenticated user's ResearchPilot working preferences and bounded routing history. These are workflow/presentation signals, never scientific authority. ``` ### `researchpilot_handoff_context` - The description's first verb is "read": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Read the immutable ResearchContext snapshot carried by a ResearchPilot handoff, including an evidence catalog without source bodies. This does not mutate Studio state or authorize execution. ``` ### `researchpilot_handoff_summary` - The description's first verb is "validate": a word for reading. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Validate the outer ResearchPilot specialist handoff identity and return a bounded context summary without source bodies.

Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Search ResearchPilot's unified method/model, source-provider, official-reference, or planned-plugin registry. Planning/discovery only; registry presence never authorizes execution or collection. ``` ### `researchpilot_search_datasets` - The name "researchpilot_search_datasets" says "search": a word for reading. - 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 Search ResearchPilot dataset/data-paper providers with explicit provider availability states. Returned records remain source candidates, not automatic dataset-fit approval. ``` ### `researchpilot_search_literature` - The name "researchpilot_search_literature" says "search": a word for reading. - Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.
