    Why it is in this group

    • The name "gloam_create_payment_request" says "create": a word for a change.
    • The name "gloam_create_payment_request" also says "payment": a word that usually means money moves, which cannot be taken back.
    • The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.
    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

      What this check looks for
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Make a link that asks someone to pay your Gloam address privately. It opens Pay in the Gloam app with the address, amount, asset and note filled in; the payer checks and sends. The details ride after the # of the link, so the payer's browser never sends them to a server. Needs your public Gloam address (gloamr1.…), never a key.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    What Gloam is, what this hosted server can do, and where to go to sign or spend. Call this first. This server only reads and plans: it never holds funds and never takes a private key, recovery phrase or note secret.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    How to pay or charge privately over MPP (the Machine Payments Protocol, HTTP 402) with the gloam method from @gloamtrade/mppx-gloam, with code. A charge settles as a private transfer in a Gloam vault: the chain sees no amount, asset, payer or payee.

    • 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
    Check a Gloam proof someone shared with you: proof of funds (gloamfunds1:), proof of payment (gloampay1:), payroll total (gloamroll1:) or exact balance (gloambal1:). Runs the same checks as gloam.trade/verify on the server: the zero-knowledge proof, that it was made on Gloam's vault, who it is for, expiry, and the live vault state. A proof of payment shows a private payment was made, not who paid whom; a payroll total shows a run of payments the prover funded, not who was paid. The older gloamdisc1 balance disclosure is never verified: anyone can copy one from a public deposit. Proofs are meant to be shared; they hold no secrets.

    • title: Verify a Gloam proof

    • destructiveHint: false

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.
