**2 tools: 1 do something that can't be undone and 1 only read.**

| Group | Class | Tools | Claude Code |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Deletes or cancels | destructive | 0 | deny |
| Can't be undone | irreversible | 1 | ask |
| Changes things | write | 0 | 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 untrusted-input 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. | none |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | none |

## Findings

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"openWorldHint":false}; The input carries an amount (input.gross_salary.amount) and a currency, so it moves money.
```


## Can't be undone (1)

Sends, pays, publishes or merges: once done, it cannot be taken back. Claude Code: ask.

### `berechne`

- The input carries an amount (input.gross_salary.amount) and a currency, so it moves money.
- 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
Calculate detailed payroll and net salary for one country and person. Use this for tax class, region, health insurance, pension, deductions, or other country-specific inputs. For the same gross salary across two or more countries, use taxcompare. Use semantic fields where available; legacy fields remain REST compatibility inputs. Monetary fields in the legacy request are minor units and period-specific.
```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `taxcompare`

- The description's first verb is "compare": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Compare annual gross, net pay, taxes, and employee social contributions across two or more supported countries. Use shared_gross for the same offer and local_median_gross for country-market benchmarks. Provide tax_year and at least two countries. Use berechne for detailed single-country payroll.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__obolus__taxcompare"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__obolus__berechne"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

## Remote posture

What an anonymous client saw at the remote endpoint, last 2026-10-22T15:05:12.496Z, unchanged since 2026-10-22T15:05:12.496Z. 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` |

- **high** 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 irreversible). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://www.obolusfinanz.de/api/mcp/public: tools/list returned 2 tools to an anonymous client, including berechne (irreversible)
```
