## Findings

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

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

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

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

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "set_persona" 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 "set_persona" says "set": a word for a change.
```


## Can't be undone (1)

Sends, pays, publishes or merges: once done, it cannot be taken back. Claude Code: ask.

### `resend_pending_invite`

- The name "resend_pending_invite" says "resend": a word for sending, and what is sent cannot be taken back.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Resend a pending parent invite by id. Use after get_pending_invites surfaces an invite expiring in <24h, or when the user explicitly asks to resend. Re-emails the existing invite_token; no new code is generated. 60s per-invite cooldown. Caller must own the invite. Requires sign-in.
```

## Changes things (11)

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

### `award_game_xp`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Award score-based XP from a game/activity (separate from study-time XP). Cascades to the leaderboard via DB trigger. Requires sign-in.
```

### `file_support_ticket`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
File a real human-followup support ticket on behalf of the signed-in user. Use this when the user reports a bug, account lockout, complaint about a tutor, or anything Sparkle/the agent cannot resolve from data. The ticket is emailed to the support team and a confirmation is sent to the user with a 1-business-day SLA. Vocab Voyage is completely free, so there is nothing to bill — never raise pricing, plans or upgrades. Categories: billing (legacy, use account instead), bug, account, complaint, feedback, other. Requires sign-in.
```

### `generate_quiz`

- The name "generate_quiz" says "generate": 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
Use this when the user wants to practice, be quizzed, or test their knowledge across multiple words at once. Generates a 1–10 question multiple-choice quiz for a test family (isee, ssat, sat, psat, gre, gmat, lsat, general). Renders the interactive Vocab Voyage quiz widget on supporting hosts; per-answer taps persist mastery for signed-in users. Do not use for definition lookups — call get_definition instead. Do not use for spaced-repetition flashcards — call get_flashcards instead.
```

### `mark_word_difficult`

- The name "mark_word_difficult" says "mark": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Manually mark a word as still-learning for the signed-in user (resets mastery toward learning band). Requires sign-in.
```

### `mark_word_known`

- The name "mark_word_known" says "mark": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Manually mark a word as mastered for the signed-in user (same as the flashcard 'I knew this' override). Requires sign-in.
```

### `nudge_child`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Parent-only. Sends a 'check-in' push notification (and email fallback) to a linked child. Use when the parent says things like 'remind my kid to study', 'nudge my child', 'tell Sam to do their words today'. The server enforces a 24h cooldown per child — if rate-limited the response includes retry_after_hours. NEVER spoof a different parent — the calling user must already be linked to the child. Requires sign-in.
```

### `play_game`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Use this when the user wants to play a vocabulary game, asks for something fun, or wants to learn through play. Launches one of 11 mini-games inside the host chat. Renders the matching ui://vocab-voyage/game/{slug} widget on supporting hosts; falls back to a deep link elsewhere. Per-question answers persist via record_word_result; round completion fires record_session_complete + award_game_xp so MCP play counts toward streaks, XP, and mastery for signed-in users. Supported slugs: word_match, spelling_bee, speed_round, synonym_showdown, word_scramble, fill_in_blank, context_clues, word_guess, picture_match, crossword, word_search. Do not use for a serious test-prep quiz — call generate_quiz instead.
```

### `record_session_complete`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Record a completed study session: writes study_sessions, awards study-time XP (+1/min, capped 30/day), and updates the daily streak. Use after a play_game / quiz / flashcard session ends. Requires sign-in.
```

### `record_word_result`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Persist a single word answer (correct/incorrect) to the user's mastery progress. Mirrors the web app's word-mastery scaling so MCP study counts toward leaderboards and streaks. Requires sign-in.
```

### `set_persona`

- The name "set_persona" says "set": 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
Bias subsequent Sparkle guidance toward a persona (student | parent | tutor | explorer). Session-scoped: the host should pass the chosen persona back to get_sparkle_guidance.
```

### `update_adaptive_level`

- The name "update_adaptive_level" says "update": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Auth-only. Parent-only. Detailed breakdown for a single child's study/quiz session — accuracy, missed words, duration. Defaults to the most recent session for the parent's first linked child if no `child_user_id` / `session_id` is supplied. Ownership-gated: returns an error for unlinked children.
```

### `get_class_session_trends`

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Auth-only. Tutor-only. Aggregate class-level trends across the tutor's classes (default 14 days, max 30). Pass `class_id` to scope to one class; omit it to get a worst-first rollup across up to 25 classes plus 1–3 struggling students.
```

### `get_class_standing`

- The name "get_class_standing" says "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Use this when a signed-in student asks how they're doing in their tutor class, who's ahead, who their rival is, or who they should challenge. Auth-only. Returns weekly XP rank inside the user's tutor class plus a winnable rival suggestion (similar weekly XP). NEVER name the class leader unless the user is rank #1 — the response uses '(top student)' as a deliberate placeholder.

```

### `get_flashcards`

- The name "get_flashcards" says "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text

Renders the interactive Vocab Voyage flashcards widget on supporting hosts; per-card 'I knew it / I didn't' buttons persist mastery for signed-in users. Do not use for multiple-choice testing (call generate_quiz) or for a single word lookup (call get_definition).
```

### `get_my_progress`

- The name "get_my_progress" says "get": a word for reading.

Returns up to 25 words from the last N days (default 7) with miss-rate and last-seen timestamp, plus a link to the in-app Recent Mistakes page. SUMMARISE — never dump every row; tell the user the count, name 2–3 sample words, and recommend the page URL. Requires sign-in.
```

### `get_recommended_next_action`

- The name "get_recommended_next_action" says "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
One-line 'do this next' hint derived from the user's current lifecycle phase. Useful when the agent wants a quick recommendation without rendering a full guidance card.
```

### `get_session_detail`

- The name "get_session_detail" says "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text

Renders the interactive Vocab Voyage study-plan widget on supporting hosts; tapping 'Start Day N' launches a flashcard session seeded with that day's words. Do not use for a single quiz session — call generate_quiz instead. Do not use for one-off lookups — call get_definition instead.
