| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | `mcp__security-sanitizer__audit_text_for_risks` |
| untrusted-input | Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments. | `mcp__security-sanitizer__audit_text_for_risks` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | none |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (2)

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

### `mask_api_keys_and_secrets`

- 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
Redact OpenAI-style API keys, bearer tokens, and common named secrets.
```

### `mask_pii_data`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```

## Only reads (1)

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

### `audit_text_for_risks`

- The description's first verb is "count": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "count" and "secret": it reads secrets.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "count" and "email": it reads inbound email, which other people can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Count recognizable secrets, email addresses, and phone numbers.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__security-sanitizer__audit_text_for_risks"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__security-sanitizer__mask_api_keys_and_secrets",
      "mcp__security-sanitizer__mask_pii_data"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__security-sanitizer__audit_text_for_risks`: private-data, untrusted-input
