Matches of fixed checks, with the text they matched.

  • The server marks "ledger_lines" as not read-only (readOnlyHint: false), and its words say it reads.

    Matched text

Deletes or cancels 1Claude Code: deny
  • period_deleteDelete one built period from the register and give its free-tier slot back.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "period_delete" says "delete": a word for removing or ending something.
    • The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.
    • The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Delete one built period from the register and give its free-tier slot back. Refused when a closed month's snapshot covers the period, and that month is named. No sibling book is touched.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: false
    • destructiveHint: true
    • idempotentHint: false
    • openWorldHint: false
Can't be undone 3Claude Code: ask
  • ledger_buildDerive the double-entry ledger for one period in ONE currency from the invoice, credit note, deposit, expense, bank and asset stores, and register it.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Derive the double-entry ledger for one period in ONE currency from the invoice, credit note, deposit, expense, bank and asset stores, and register it. Nothing is written back. Free: 3 periods a month.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: false
    • destructiveHint: false
    • idempotentHint: false
    • openWorldHint: false
  • ledger_reportReport a built period account by account: debits, credits, movement and closing balance, plus purchase commitments held as memos and the period's exceptions.1 finding

    Why it is in this group

    • The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.
    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

    Findings

    • Warn

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

      What this check looks for
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Report a built period account by account: debits, credits, movement and closing balance, plus purchase commitments held as memos and the period's exceptions. Pro; ledger_lines gives the lines free.

    Annotations the server declares

    • openWorldHint: false
  • trial_balanceTotal the debits and the credits for a period and prove they are equal to the minor unit.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Total the debits and the credits for a period and prove they are equal to the minor unit. When they are not, name the entries whose own legs do not add up and the source document behind each. Free and unlimited.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: false

      Matched text

      annotations: {"readOnlyHint":false,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":false,"openWorldHint":false}; The description's first verb is "list": a word for reading.

      What this check looks for
    Description, as the server wrote it
    List the ledger lines for a period, filtered by account, source server, source_id or date; each carries its debit, credit and bank_ref, with the totals of the rows returned. Filtered totals do not balance. Free.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: false

    • idempotentHint: false
    • openWorldHint: false
  • license_activateTurn Pro on for this connection with key, an MCPL1.<payload>.<signature> issued at checkout for this server or the bundle.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Turn Pro on for this connection with key, an MCPL1.<payload>.<signature> issued at checkout for this server or the bundle. Data under your token stays; a wrong or expired key changes nothing. license_status confirms it.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: false
    • destructiveHint: false
    • idempotentHint: false
    • openWorldHint: false
  • month_closeList what a month leaves unposted or unbalanced, with its trial balance and bank reconciliation, then store the close as a snapshot; a later call names any drift against it.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "month_close" says "close": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    List what a month leaves unposted or unbalanced, with its trial balance and bank reconciliation, then store the close as a snapshot; a later call names any drift against it. dry_run writes nothing. Pro.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: false
    • destructiveHint: false
    • idempotentHint: false
    • openWorldHint: false

  • ledger_export_csvReturn the period's ledger lines as RFC 4180 CSV, one row per leg, as a download link valid for one hour.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "return": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Return the period's ledger lines as RFC 4180 CSV, one row per leg, as a download link valid for one hour. Pro, but ledger_lines returns these same fields free and unlimited; this only lays them out as CSV columns.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: true
    • destructiveHint: false
    • idempotentHint: true
    • openWorldHint: false
  • license_statusReport this endpoint's licence state for your token as JSON: the product, the tier free or pro, why it is not Pro, and the checkout URL.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "license_status" says "status": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Report this endpoint's licence state for your token as JSON: the product, the tier free or pro, why it is not Pro, and the checkout URL. Call it to explain a free-tier refusal. No arguments, nothing changes.

    Annotations the server declares

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
