## Findings

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

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "run_statement" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"openWorldHint":false}; The name "run_statement" says "run": a word for a change.

## Changes things (7)

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

### `eval_chart_transform`

- The description's first verb is "create": 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
Create a chart from data_refs (an array of snapshot IDs), a bounded JavaScript function, and chart_spec. Supports line, bar, area, waterfall, scatter, horizontal_bar, forecast_line, cohort_heatmap and sparkline_row. Query first and inspect rows; the transform takes one result per ref and returns flat rows.
```

### `export_dataset`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Export a cached data_ref to json or xlsx without rerunning the query; returns a temporary file and download link.
```

### `precis_orientation`

- The description's first verb is "call": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Call this first. Returns how to use Précis over this connector: the data model (scenarios, metrics, statements, dimensions), the reporting-tool variants, and how to build charts. Read it before composing queries.
```

### `run_metric`

- The name "run_metric" says "run": 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
Break one or more metrics down by a dimension — revenue by project, utilisation by employee, headcount trends, GL account drill-down. Rows are the dimension; columns are metrics × scenarios. Pass `scenarios` explicitly and give every scenario a concise, user-facing `alias` such as Actuals, Budget, Variance, or Var %. Returns a formatted table with structured data. The widget already displays this table to the user. Add useful interpretation; do not reproduce the table or restate all its rows in Markdown unless the user explicitly requests it or the widget is unavailable.
```

### `run_metric_data`

- The name "run_metric_data" says "run": 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
Break one or more metrics down by a dimension — revenue by project, utilisation by employee, headcount trends, GL account drill-down. Rows are the dimension; columns are metrics × scenarios. Pass `scenarios` explicitly and give every scenario a concise, user-facing `alias` such as Actuals, Budget, Variance, or Var %. Returns the raw figures (and a `data_ref`) for your own analysis or to build a chart — pass `[data_ref]` as `data_refs` to eval_chart_transform. Does not show the user a table.
```

### `run_statement`

- The name "run_statement" says "run": a word for a change.
- The input takes a statement or command to run (input.statement), which can change anything it can reach.
- 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
Run a financial statement — P&L, variance report, or executive summary. Rows are statement lines (Revenue, Direct Cost, Gross Margin, …); columns are scenarios. Supports an optional dimension breakdown (e.g. by period or cost centre). For an unspecified general P&L, prefer `full_pnl` when it is listed by precis_orientation. Give every scenario a concise, user-facing `alias` such as Actuals, Budget, Variance, or Var %. Returns a formatted table with structured data. The widget already displays this table to the user. Add useful interpretation; do not reproduce the table or restate all its rows in Markdown unless the user explicitly requests it or the widget is unavailable.
```

### `run_statement_data`

- The name "run_statement_data" says "run": a word for a change.
- The input takes a statement or command to run (input.statement), which can change anything it can reach.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Give every scenario a concise, user-facing `alias` such as Actuals, Budget, Variance, or Var %. Returns the raw figures (and a `data_ref`) for your own analysis or to build a chart — pass `[data_ref]` as `data_refs` to eval_chart_transform. Does not show the user a table.
```
