Changes things 1Claude Code: ask
  • preview_exploration_mapCreate a branded mineral exploration map from public registry claims and return a shareable URL.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "preview_exploration_map" says "preview": a word for reading.
    • The description's first verb is "create": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Create a branded mineral exploration map from public registry claims and return a shareable URL. Provide at least one of search, location or claim_numbers. For a specific project, search its claims first and pass exact claim_numbers. Supply published facts and branding when known; never invent ownership, targets, grades or coordinates. Supports separate neighbouring claims, a project callout, locator inset, and map basemap selection. Drill and NI 43-101 layouts require user-supplied data or qualified review; this tool does not generate drill results. Free use allows 10 previews per hour; allowance in the result reports how many remain.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "search_mineral_claims" says "search": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Search public mineral-claim registries by holder, exact claim number, claim name, or geographic bounding box; provide query, bbox, or both. Claim-name search is available for British Columbia and US BLM jurisdictions. Returns claim number as a string, name, holder, status, expiry, area and centroid when the registry supplies them. Cluster results geographically before selecting a specific project. Results are informational, not a legal title opinion or survey.

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
