Claude Code: ask. ### `sources_activity` - 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 Measured newsroom behaviour. What a newsroom did rather than what its profile says it is: crawl outcomes over the window, and the byline, originality, opinion, press-release and filing-lag rates the profile cron computed over its own 30-day window. successRate is over finished runs only, so a crawl still in flight never reads as a failure. Requires the sources API scope. English is the fallback for untranslated fields. ``` ### `stories_members` - 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 Every article in a cluster, paged. The same member records /v1/stories/{ckey} returns, but paged and filterable by side or lean. side and lean come from the source registry rather than the row, so a filtered page can be shorter than its limit while still issuing a cursor. Requires the stories API scope. English is the fallback for untranslated fields. ``` ## Only reads (14) Looks things up and changes nothing.
