4 tools: 1 do something that can't be undone, 1 change things and 2 only read.

Scanned Oct 21, 2026

2 checks matched something in the tool definitions. No finding is not a safety guarantee. How the checks work.

Findings

Matches of fixed checks, with the text they matched.

2 warn
  • The server marks "inspect_command" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "analyze_tool_call" says "analyze": a word for reading.
    • The description says "irreversible".
    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

      Matched text

      annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The name "analyze_tool_call" says "analyze": a word for reading.

      What this check looks for
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Analyze a proposed AI-agent tool call before execution and return a deterministic, policy-aware decision (allow, notice, confirm or block) covering destructive actions, sensitive-data exposure, external transmission, privilege changes and irreversible operations, under the applicable policy — permissive, balanced or strict, balanced by default. Filesystem paths outside a known workspace_root are treated as higher risk than paths inside it.

    • destructiveHint: false
    • idempotentHint: true
    • openWorldHint: false

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "inspect_command" says "inspect": a word for reading.
    • The input takes a statement or command to run (input.command), which can change anything it can reach.
    • 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
    Analyze a shell command before execution and return a deterministic, policy-aware decision (allow, notice, confirm or block) without running it, under the applicable policy — permissive, balanced or strict, balanced by default.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "analyze_url_risk" says "analyze": a word for reading.

    What it can reach

    • untrusted-inputThe name "analyze_url_risk" says "analyze" and "url": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
    • untrusted-inputThe description's first sentence says "analyze" and "url": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
    • untrusted-inputThe input takes a URL (input.url), and the tool reads it: it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
    • outboundThe input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.

    Claude Code: ask, because it is tagged outbound.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Analyze a URL for structural and security risk signals and return a deterministic, policy-aware decision (allow, notice, confirm or block) under the applicable policy — permissive, balanced or strict, balanced by default.

    Why it is in this group

    What it can reach

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.

Exfil surface

Which tools read private data, which read text someone else can write, and which can send data out. One of each is a path a prompt injection can use.

1 path in this server alone from private data, through text someone else wrote, to a way out. Denying 1 outbound tool breaks every one.

Reads private data1
Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories.
Reads text others write1
Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments.
Can send data out1
Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL.
deny to break every path
{
  "permissions": {
    "deny": [
      "mcp__agent-utility__analyze_url_risk"
    ]
  }
}

Other servers in the same agent add their own tools to these paths. Audit your whole setup to see them together.

Install

Pinned to version 0.3.0. Values in angle brackets are yours to fill in.

claude mcp add --transport http agent-utility https://agent-utility-mcp.insivotron.workers.dev/mcp

Run in a terminal.

Claude Code permissions

Allow the reads, ask before a change or a way out, deny the deletes. Paste into .claude/settings.json.

.claude/settings.json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__agent-utility__inspect_file"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__agent-utility__analyze_url_risk",
      "mcp__agent-utility__inspect_command",
      "mcp__agent-utility__analyze_tool_call"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}

Tools that only read are allowed, tools that change things ask first, tools that delete or cancel are denied. A read that can send data out (it takes a URL, say) asks first too. It assumes the server is installed as agent-utility. Review it before you use it.
