## Findings

- **warn** Annotations that disagree with the tool in `adjust_for_inflation` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.
```


## Can't be undone (1)

Sends, pays, publishes or merges: once done, it cannot be taken back. Claude Code: ask.

### `adjust_for_inflation`

- 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 annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Use this when the user asks a us inflation calculator question, for example what is $100 worth today, the value of money over time, or a dollar inflation calculator, buying power calculator or consumer price index calculator request for US dollars. It converts one US dollar amount between two periods with the published CPI-U index and returns the adjusted amount, both index values, the cumulative inflation, the average annual rate, and the buying-power change. It works for published periods from 1913-01 to the latest bundled month, year or YYYY-MM inputs, and amounts greater than zero up to one trillion dollars including fractional cents; only the output is rounded to cents. Do not use for other countries, for regional or core CPI, for forecasts, or for financial advice.
```

## Changes things (1)

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

### `inflation_table`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Use this when the user wants a consumer price index calculator, inflation rate calculator or cpi calculator across many years: a year-by-year table of the annual average CPI-U and the yearly inflation rate, with a CSV download. It uses the bundled published CPI-U series for 1913 through the latest full year, up to 120 years per call. Do not use for a single amount conversion (use adjust_for_inflation), for other countries, for monthly percent changes, or for forecasts.
```
