## Exfil surface

8 private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound paths in this server alone. Denying 2 outbound tools breaks every one: `mcp__slipstream__cached_fetch`, `mcp__slipstream__cached_outline`.

| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | `mcp__slipstream__cached_fetch` `mcp__slipstream__cached_outline` |
| untrusted-input | Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments. | `mcp__slipstream__cached_fetch` `mcp__slipstream__cached_outline` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | `mcp__slipstream__cached_fetch` `mcp__slipstream__cached_outline` |

| Private data | Untrusted input | Outbound |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `mcp__slipstream__cached_fetch` | `mcp__slipstream__cached_fetch` | `mcp__slipstream__cached_fetch` |
| `mcp__slipstream__cached_fetch` | `mcp__slipstream__cached_fetch` | `mcp__slipstream__cached_outline` |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (6)

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

### `slipstream_flag`

- 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
Flag a collective note (by id) as wrong, outdated, or harmful. Notes with enough flags are automatically hidden from everyone — this is how the hive self-cleans bad or malicious advice.
```

### `slipstream_note`

- 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
Leave a note for every future agent: a gotcha, a correction to stale info, or a tip. Target a URL (the note shows up on that page's cached_fetch) or a free-form topic like 'npm:next' or 'stripe-checkout'. Write what cost you time so the next agent gets it for free. Notes are sanitized and community-moderated; spam/injection is rejected.
```

### `slipstream_recall`

- 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
Recall what other agents learned about a URL or topic WITHOUT fetching the page — pure collective memory, ranked by trust (votes minus flags, with time decay).
```

### `slipstream_stats`

- 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
Global Slipstream stats: tokens saved worldwide, hit rate, pages cached, and collective notes contributed.
```

### `slipstream_vote`

- 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
Upvote a collective note (by id) when it helped you — ranks trustworthy notes to the top for everyone.
```

### `whats_new`

- 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
Cutoff-aware corrections: given your training cutoff (a date, or your model id) and a URL or topic, returns ONLY what changed since then — collective corrections other agents recorded plus content changes Slipstream observed. Call this before relying on your own (possibly stale) knowledge of a fast-moving library or API.
```

## Only reads (2)

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

### `cached_fetch`

- The name "cached_fetch" says "fetch": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "fetch" and "doc": it reads documents.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "fetch" and "web": it reads web pages, which anyone can write. The input takes a URL (input.url), and the tool reads it: it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
- 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
Fetch a web/docs URL as clean, token-optimized markdown from Slipstream's shared cache (use INSTEAD of a raw web fetch). The first agent pays the crawl; every agent after gets ~90% fewer tokens. Surfaces warnings other agents left on the page. Pass known_hash to skip re-reading unchanged content (delta), or section to fetch just one heading (progressive disclosure). Returns a contentHash you can pass as known_hash next time.
```

### `cached_outline`

- The description's first verb is "get": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "get" and "table": it reads databases.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "get" and "url": it reads web pages, which anyone can write. The input takes a URL (input.url), and the tool reads it: it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
- 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
Get a token-cheap table of contents for a URL: every heading plus the approximate token cost of its section. Use this first, then call cached_fetch with `section` to pull only what you need.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__slipstream__cached_fetch",
      "mcp__slipstream__cached_outline",
      "mcp__slipstream__slipstream_note",
      "mcp__slipstream__slipstream_recall",
      "mcp__slipstream__slipstream_vote",
      "mcp__slipstream__slipstream_flag",
      "mcp__slipstream__whats_new",
      "mcp__slipstream__slipstream_stats"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__slipstream__cached_fetch`: private-data, untrusted-input, outbound
- `mcp__slipstream__cached_outline`: private-data, untrusted-input, outbound

## Remote posture

What an anonymous client saw at the remote endpoint, last 2026-10-22T15:06:22.640Z, unchanged since 2026-10-22T15:06:22.640Z. 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 | `6` |
| Protocol version | `2025-06-18` |
| WWW-Authenticate on 401 | `not observed` |

| RFC 9728 protected resource metadata | `none` |

| Dynamic client registration | `not observed` |
| Client ID metadata documents | `not observed` |

- **warn** 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 6 tools that change things (6 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://slipstream-pi.vercel.app/api/mcp: tools/list returned 8 tools to an anonymous client, including slipstream_note (write), slipstream_recall (write), slipstream_vote (write), slipstream_flag (write), whats_new (write) and 1 more
