## Findings

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

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "expo_workflow_cancel" not destructive (destructiveHint: false), and its own name, description or input give the class "destructive".

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":false,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":false,"openWorldHint":false}; The name "expo_workflow_cancel" says "cancel": a word for removing or ending something.
```

### `expo_build_cancel`

- The name "expo_build_cancel" says "cancel": a word for removing or ending something.

### `expo_build_submit`

- The name "expo_build_submit" says "submit": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

Submits an EAS build to the app store (Google Play Store for Android, App Store for iOS). The build must be a finished build with the appropriate distribution type. Provide either appId (from app.json "extra.eas.projectId") OR appFullName (e.g., "@owner/my-app").
```

### `expo_learn`

- 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
Learn Expo how-to for a specific topic and remember it for future conversations. Use this to teach the assistant about specific Expo features or workflows.
```

### `expo_workflow_create`

- The name "expo_workflow_create" says "create": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Creates a new EAS workflow YAML file for Expo projects or fetches workflow syntax documentation. Use this when users want to create CI/CD workflows in .eas/workflows/ or need to learn EAS workflow syntax. After creating, use workflow_validate to validate the file.
```

### `expo_workflow_run`

- The name "expo_workflow_run" says "run": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Triggers an EAS workflow run from a git reference. Provide either appId (from app.json "extra.eas.projectId") OR appFullName (e.g., "@owner/my-app"). The workflow file must exist at the specified git reference.
```

### `marketplace`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- Findings: info credentials-mention

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
The official mcp.ai marketplace — the in-platform catalog of every MCP/tool, AND the way to run them. Covers capability requests like "find an MCP that does X", "consulta um CPF", "is there a tool for Y". Core flow: action=search discovers MCPs by intent → describe returns one MCP's full profile (every tool with its id + params, pricing, auth) so you pick the right tool_id → invoke RUNS that tool. KEY: invoke works even when the MCP is NOT installed — it runs the tool pontualmente (one-off), without adding the MCP to the toolkit and without bloating the tool list. If the MCP needs a credential/login, invoke returns a connect link; if it is paid and the wallet is empty, invoke returns a checkout/top-up link (the user opens it, then you retry). Use install only to make an MCP PERMANENT in the active toolkit (its tools then show up natively in future sessions); prefer invoke for a single/occasional use. list_tools lists what is callable right now. subscribe/cancel handle per-MCP billing; report_bug sends feedback; request_mcp asks us to build a NEW MCP when nothing fits. Search/describe flag installed_in_toolkit vs installed_in_workspace. Writes (install/uninstall/subscribe/cancel and the one-off install behind invoke) require workspace owner/admin. It also carries the mcp.ai PROMPT LIBRARY, which is about ready-made prompt TEXT rather than MCPs: search_prompts finds one, get_prompt returns its full text with {{variables}} filled, and publish_prompt saves a prompt and returns a shareable mcp.ai/p/<slug> link that opens without login.
```

### `report_bug`

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