**2 tools: 1 change things and 1 only read.**

| Group | Class | Tools | Claude Code |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Deletes or cancels | destructive | 0 | deny |
| Can't be undone | irreversible | 0 | ask |
| Changes things | write | 1 | ask |
| Only reads | read | 1 | allow |

## 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__dependency-check__check_dependency` `mcp__dependency-check__check_package` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | none |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (1)

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

### `check_dependency`

- 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
Look up known vulnerabilities for one package version from OSV. Returns advisory id, summary, CVE aliases, severity string, and fixed versions when the advisory lists them. Ecosystems: packagist, npm, pypi, go, crates.io, maven, rubygems, nuget. Omit ecosystem and a vendor/package name uses Packagist, otherwise npm. An empty list means OSV returned none, and that successful lookup is charged. This is not a full audit. The first 5 successful calls each UTC day from one network address are free and need no key. not_found and fetch_failed are not charged and do not use a free call. After the 5, send X-API-Key. A key call costs 0.04 credit on success. Key: https://firm.bestsmartgoods.com/signup
```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `check_package`

- The description's first verb is "read": a word for reading.
- 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
Read the current Packagist facts for one PHP package: latest stable version, required PHP, license, and whether it is abandoned. Use it before composer require. Send vendor/package. Set version to ask about one release; version_found is false when that release is absent, and the latest stable is still returned. This does not list vulnerabilities. The first 5 successful calls each UTC day from one network address are free and need no key. not_found and fetch_failed are not charged and do not use a free call. After the 5, send X-API-Key. A key call costs 0.04 credit on success. Key: https://firm.bestsmartgoods.com/signup
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `dependency-check`:

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__dependency-check__check_package"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__dependency-check__check_dependency"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__dependency-check__check_package`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__dependency-check__check_dependency`: untrusted-input

## Remote posture

What an anonymous client saw at the remote endpoint, last 2026-11-05T03:19:45.035Z, unchanged since 2026-11-05T03:19:45.035Z. No credentials were sent and no tool was called. Values are shown as the endpoint returned them. Method: https://anlyon.dev/methodology#remote-posture

| Fact | Observed |
| --- | --- |
| Reachable | `yes` |
| HTTP status of an anonymous initialize | `200` |
| tools/list served without credentials | `yes` |
| Tools that change things, listed without credentials | `1` |
| Protocol version | `2025-06-18` |
| WWW-Authenticate on 401 | `not observed` |
| resource_metadata in WWW-Authenticate | `none` |
| RFC 9728 protected resource metadata | `none` |
| Authorization servers | `none` |
| Legacy HTTP+SSE transport | `no` |
| Dynamic client registration | `not observed` |
| Client ID metadata documents | `not observed` |

- **warn** Tools that change things, listed to anyone ([unauth-remote-writes](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#unauth-remote-writes))

```untrusted-server-text
The endpoint served tools/list without credentials, and the list has 1 tool that changes things (1 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://deps.bestsmartgoods.com/mcp: tools/list returned 2 tools to an anonymous client, including check_dependency (write)
```
