## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (3)

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

### `create_topic`

- The name "create_topic" says "create": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Generate a new sourced encyclopedia article from a title (web search + LLM, ~15s). Returns the existing article instead if the topic is already covered. Daily rate limit applies — search first.
```

### `discover_topics`

- 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
Semantic search with optional filters. Use when keyword search misses, or to browse a category by meaning rather than exact wording.
```

### `edit_section`

- The name "edit_section" says "edit": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Replace one section of an article with corrected Markdown. Preferred over creating a duplicate topic when you find an error. Pass expected_revision (from read_topic) to avoid clobbering a concurrent edit.
```

## Only reads (4)

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

### `list_missing_topics`

- The name "list_missing_topics" says "list": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Topics people searched for that don't exist yet, ranked by demand. The highest-leverage queue for deciding what to write next.
```

### `preview_phrase`

- The name "preview_phrase" says "preview": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get a short AI explanation of any phrase without generating a full article. Cheap and fast — use it to decide whether a topic is worth creating.
```

### `read_topic`

- The name "read_topic" says "read": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Fetch the full Markdown article for a topic slug, with infobox and citations.
```

### `search_topics`

- The name "search_topics" says "search": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Keyword search over Smartipedia article titles and summaries. Returns slugs and summaries; call read_topic with a slug for the full article.
```
