## Findings

- **info** The word "credentials" in `drift_check` ([credentials-mention](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#credentials-mention))

```untrusted-server-text
The description mentions "credential".

```


## Changes things (2)

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

### `drift_check`

- 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.
- Findings: info credentials-mention

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Check ONE proposed action against a signed agent mandate BEFORE it happens. Returns {"verdict": "ALLOW"|"DENY", "rule": <name>} plus a report with a ledger fingerprint.

Six rules run in a fixed order, so a refusal names the most important reason rather than an incidental one: amount, payee, audience, currency, window, intent. Anything unclassified is DENY.

Use immediately before any action that spends money, moves a credential or changes state on someone else's behalf.

Do NOT use to: verify mandate signatures (AP2 does that, and this server runs after signature verification), execute the action (it only decides), or certify that an intent is truthful — "intent" arrives from the agent and is untrusted input. An agent that lies within its limits still leaves a ledger entry; proving what really happened is attest's job, not this one's.

Amounts are integer minor units (cents), never floats. Window bounds are inclusive. Fully idempotent: the same inputs always give the same verdict and the mandate is never mutated.
```

### `drift_session`

- 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
Check a SEQUENCE of proposed actions against one mandate. Returns {submitted, allowed, denied, breach_by_rule, fingerprint}.

Use for a whole plan or batch, not a single action — use drift_check for that. The fingerprint is the point: rewriting or reordering any earlier decision changes the hash, so tampering with history becomes visible instead of silent.

Do NOT use it to execute the actions, or as evidence of what actually happened. It reports what was PROPOSED against a mandate you supply.

Read-only. Idempotent for a fixed action list. Amounts in integer minor units, as in drift_check.
```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `drift_explain`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Return the six enforcement rules in the exact order they are applied, each with a plain-language reason it exists. Takes no mandate and no action.

Use when a refusal did not make sense, or before explaining a denial to someone whose mandate was rejected. A refusal you cannot explain is one nobody will trust.

Do NOT use it to check an action — it performs no check, and cannot predict which rule will fire, only the order they are tried in.

Constant output, fully idempotent, opens no files, contacts no host.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__drift__drift_explain"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__drift__drift_check",
      "mcp__drift__drift_session"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```
