## Findings

- **info** The word "credentials" in `aw_census` ([credentials-mention](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#credentials-mention))

```untrusted-server-text
The description mentions "credentials".

description: "...directing — liveness unprovable without credentials. Use to quantify how much of the MC..."
```


## Changes things (4)

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

### `aw_census`

- 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.
- Findings: info credentials-mention

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Full-census summary of the official MCP registry: 7,454 endpoints probed with real MCP handshakes.

    Returns alive/dead/unknown counts and percentages. States: alive = MCP
    initialize succeeded; dead = no answer; unknown = answered but auth-gated
    (401/403/402) or redirecting — liveness unprovable without credentials.
    Use to quantify how much of the MCP ecosystem is actually reachable.
    
```

### `aw_check_endpoint`

- 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
Probe an MCP or HTTP-402 endpoint now and get its trust verdict.

    Performs a real MCP initialize handshake (not a ping), measures p50/p95
    latency, counts tools, hashes the tool schema (for drift detection), and
    checks RFC 9728 auth metadata. Returns: alive (bool), name, tool_count,
    latency_p50_ms, tool_schema_hash, auth_metadata_present, and error detail
    when dead. Use before wiring any new MCP server into your client.

    Args:
        url: the MCP or HTTP-402 endpoint URL to probe (e.g. https://host/mcp/)
        timeout: probe timeout in seconds (default 30)
    
```

### `aw_health`

- 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
Liveness check for the Agent Watch API. Returns ok, service name, and version. Call this first to verify connectivity before using other tools.
```

### `aw_watch`

- The description's first verb is "add": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Add endpoints to your personal watchlist (probed immediately, then every 6h).

    Plan-limited by the email used at checkout: free 5, Builder ($19/mo) 50,
    Team ($99/mo) 500 endpoints. Alerts fire on alive→dead transitions and
    tool-schema drift. Already-watched URLs are returned without re-probing.

    Args:
        email: the email your subscription is under (free tier works too)
        urls: endpoint URLs to add to your watchlist
        watch_token: issued at registration, delivered in your onboarding email — required
    
```

## Only reads (4)

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

### `aw_alerts`

- The description's first verb is "show": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Show dead endpoints across the monitored registry (alive=false).

    Returns up to 500 dead endpoints with names. Use after aw_census or
    aw_list_monitored to get the actionable dead list. Read-only.
    
```

### `aw_list_monitored`

- The name "aw_list_monitored" says "list": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List all endpoints in the Agent Watch census with their registry names.

    Returns count and the full endpoint list (URLs). Combine with aw_alerts
    to find which of these are dead. Read-only.
    
```

### `read_skill`

- The name "read_skill" says "read": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read a product skill file by its skill:// URI.

            Args:
                uri: e.g. skill://<product>/<skill-name>/SKILL.md
                     Get valid URIs from `skills_list_tool`.
            
```

### `skills_list_tool`

- The name "skills_list_tool" says "list": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List this product's skills. Each entry carries the SKILL.md URI,
            its name and description, verbatim frontmatter, and a per-file
            sha256 manifest. Read a body with `read_skill`.
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `agent-watch`:

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__agent-watch__aw_list_monitored",
      "mcp__agent-watch__aw_alerts",
      "mcp__agent-watch__skills_list_tool",
      "mcp__agent-watch__read_skill"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__agent-watch__aw_health",
      "mcp__agent-watch__aw_check_endpoint",
      "mcp__agent-watch__aw_census",
      "mcp__agent-watch__aw_watch"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
