## Exfil surface

8 private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound paths in this server alone. Denying 1 untrusted-input tool breaks every one: `mcp__postlaunchkit__search_projects`.

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

| Private data | Untrusted input | Outbound |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `mcp__postlaunchkit__get_project` | `mcp__postlaunchkit__search_projects` | `mcp__postlaunchkit__run_launch_check` |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (2)

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

### `run_launch_check`

- The name "run_launch_check" says "run": a word for a change.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Run the PostLaunchKit launch check on a public website. Returns how many checks passed (passed, total), each check with status pass or fail and a fix for failures, and a report link. 20 checks per IP per day. Public sites only.
```

### `submit_project`

- The name "submit_project" says "submit": a word for a change.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Suggest a product for the directory. The submission is saved as pending and reviewed by a person; nothing is published automatically.
```

## Only reads (4)

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

### `get_project`

- The name "get_project" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "get" and "directory": it reads files.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get one published directory entry by its slug.
```

### `list_categories`

- The name "list_categories" says "list": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "list" and "directory": it reads files.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List directory categories with the number of published entries in each.
```

### `list_launch_directories`

- The name "list_launch_directories" says "list": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The name "list_launch_directories" says "list" and "directory": it reads files. The description's first sentence says "list" and "directory": it reads files.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List directories and listing sites where an indie product can be submitted, from the open launch-directories dataset (CC BY 4.0). Rows include public eligibility, reciprocity, free-tier conditions, field-specific sources and checked dates. Use checked=true for source-backed options. Provider claims are not independently observed listing links. Blank/unknown stays unknown. Run run_launch_check on the product site before submitting.
```

### `search_projects`

- The name "search_projects" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "search" and "directory": it reads files.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "search" and "post": it reads posts, which other people can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search the PostLaunchKit directory of human-reviewed free tools and projects, including AI agent tooling. Returns published entries only.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__postlaunchkit__search_projects",
      "mcp__postlaunchkit__get_project",
      "mcp__postlaunchkit__list_launch_directories",
      "mcp__postlaunchkit__list_categories"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__postlaunchkit__run_launch_check",
      "mcp__postlaunchkit__submit_project"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__postlaunchkit__search_projects`: private-data, untrusted-input
- `mcp__postlaunchkit__get_project`: private-data
- `mcp__postlaunchkit__run_launch_check`: outbound
- `mcp__postlaunchkit__list_launch_directories`: private-data
- `mcp__postlaunchkit__list_categories`: private-data
- `mcp__postlaunchkit__submit_project`: outbound

## Remote posture

What an anonymous client saw at the remote endpoint, last 2026-10-22T15:06:24.637Z, unchanged since 2026-10-22T15:06:24.637Z. 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 | `2` |
| 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` |

- **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 2 tools that change things (2 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://postlaunchkit.com/mcp: tools/list returned 6 tools to an anonymous client, including run_launch_check (write), submit_project (write)
```
