## Exfil surface

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

| 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__pdfua-check__check_pdf_accessibility` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | `mcp__pdfua-check__check_pdf_accessibility` |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Only reads (2)

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

### `check_pdf_accessibility`

- The description's first verb is "validate": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.
- Claude Code: ask, because it is tagged outbound.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Validate a PDF against PDF/UA-1 with veraPDF and list every failed rule (rule id, description, number of failed checks, link to a plain-language explanation). The automatic fix is then run on the file and validated again, so the result also says which failures the fix removes and whether the file then passes — measured on this file, not estimated. Give either 'url' (a public http(s) address of the PDF, max 10 MB) or 'pdf_base64'. The file is not stored and the fixed file is not returned here.
```

### `explain_pdfua_rule`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Explain a veraPDF PDF/UA-1 rule by id (clause-test, e.g. 7.1-3, 7.3-1, 7.18.5-1, 7.21.4.1-1): what it checks, the veraPDF error message, whether the automatic fix removes it and how to fix it in the authoring tool.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__pdfua-check__explain_pdfua_rule"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__pdfua-check__check_pdf_accessibility"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__pdfua-check__check_pdf_accessibility`: untrusted-input, outbound
