## Findings

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The name "matrix_add" says "add": a word for a change.
```


## Changes things (4)

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

### `matrix_add`

- The name "matrix_add" says "add": 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
Add two matrices of the same dimensions entry by entry. Useful for exact matrix addition or explaining each entry step by step. Accepts integers, decimals, and fraction strings (for example 1/2); returns the exact sum matrix and a calculation for each position.
```

### `matrix_multiply`

- 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
Multiply A by B when A's column count equals B's row count, including non-square matrices. Useful for exact matrix multiplication and step-by-step row-by-column dot products. Returns exact results plus each factor pair, product, and entry calculation; accepts fractions and decimals.
```

### `matrix_subtract`

- 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
Subtract matrix B from matrix A when both have the same dimensions. Useful for exact matrix subtraction, including negative values and step-by-step entry calculations. Accepts integers, decimals, and fraction strings; returns each exact difference and its calculation.
```

### `matrix_transpose`

- 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
Transpose a rectangular or square matrix by exchanging rows and columns. Useful for requests to show where each result entry originated. Preserves exact integer, decimal, and fraction inputs and returns the transposed matrix with source-to-result position mappings.
```

## Only reads (2)

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

### `matrix_determinant`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find the exact determinant of a square matrix using fraction-preserving elimination. Use for determinant questions requiring row swaps, elimination steps, pivot multipliers, sign changes, diagonal products, or singularity checks. Returns the determinant and detailed operation steps.
```

### `matrix_inverse`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find an exact inverse of a square matrix with step-by-step Gauss-Jordan elimination. Use for inverse questions needing exact fractions, augmented matrices, row swaps, normalization, elimination, and verification that A times A-inverse is identity. Returns the inverse and verification, or null with singular=true if not invertible.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__matrixcalculator__matrix_determinant",
      "mcp__matrixcalculator__matrix_inverse"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__matrixcalculator__matrix_add",
      "mcp__matrixcalculator__matrix_subtract",
      "mcp__matrixcalculator__matrix_multiply",
      "mcp__matrixcalculator__matrix_transpose"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
