## Exfil surface

No private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound path in this server alone: no tool is tagged private-data or outbound.

| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | none |
| untrusted-input | Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments. | `mcp__corium21__dry_skin_forecast` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | none |

## Findings

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

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "decode_ingredient_label" 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 "decode_ingredient_label" says "label": a word for a change.
```


## Changes things (2)

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

### `decode_ingredient_label`

- The name "decode_ingredient_label" says "label": 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
Estimate what's really in a lotion, cream, balm or serum from its printed ingredient list (INCI). Finds the likely '1% line' (ingredients above it must be listed by amount under US FDA 21 CFR 701.3 and EU rules), gives a rough percentage range for each ingredient above the line, says what each ingredient does, and adds neutral notes on ingredients people with sensitive or eczema-prone skin often avoid (fragrance, essential oils, some preservatives). Estimates come from label order and typical use levels; they are not lab measurements. Same engine as https://corium21.com/pages/ingredient-label-decoder.
```

### `dry_skin_forecast`

- 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.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
7-day dry skin outlook for a US ZIP code or US latitude/longitude. Estimates how dry indoor air will get once the heat is on (outdoor dew point heated to 70°F), rates each day Low, Moderate, High or Very high, and gives a simple skin-care tip for each level. Uses the US National Weather Service forecast; US locations only. Same method as https://corium21.com/pages/dry-skin-forecast.
```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `explain_ingredient`

- The name "explain_ingredient" says "explain": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Say what a single cosmetic ingredient does in a moisturizer (humectant, emollient, occlusive, preservative and so on), its typical use level, common alternative names, and any notes for sensitive skin. Covers 233 common moisturizer ingredients by INCI or common name, and makes a labeled best guess from the name for anything else.
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `corium21`:

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__corium21__explain_ingredient"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__corium21__decode_ingredient_label",
      "mcp__corium21__dry_skin_forecast"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

Capability tags behind the rules (a read tagged outbound is asked about):

- `mcp__corium21__dry_skin_forecast`: untrusted-input
