## Findings

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The description's first verb is "evaluate": a word for a change.
```


## Changes things (1)

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

### `calculate`

- The description's first verb is "evaluate": 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
Evaluate math expressions, simplify algebraic expressions, or compute symbolic derivatives. One expression per call. Supports arithmetic, trigonometry, statistics, matrices, complex numbers, units, and combinatorics.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

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