## Findings

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

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "entry_log" as not read-only (readOnlyHint: false), and its words say it reads.

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":false,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":false,"openWorldHint":false}; The name "entry_log" says "log": a word for reading.
```

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

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "report" 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.
```

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

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "invoice_summary" 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.
```


## Deletes or cancels (1)

Removes, cancels or revokes something. Claude Code: deny.

### `entry_delete`

- The name "entry_delete" says "delete": a word for removing or ending something.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Delete one logged entry by id and report the project and hours removed. It never touches a running timer. A billed entry goes too, losing the invoice record, so correct one with entry_edit instead.
```

## Can't be undone (4)

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

### `entry_mark_billed`

- The name "entry_mark_billed" says "mark": a word for a change.
- The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Close the loop after an invoice is issued: stamp the tracked hours that went on it with the invoice number, so report and invoice_summary stop offering them and the same hours are never billed twice.
```

### `export_csv`

- The description's first verb is "call": a word for a change.
- The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Call this tool to export the timesheet to a CSV file (excel-friendly) you can hand to a bookkeeper: one row per entry with hours, billable, rate, currency and amount. Returns the file path written.
```

### `invoice_summary`

- 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
Turn tracked billable time into invoice lines for one project: hours, hourly rate, amount per task and the total, one line per rate so two rates never average. Hours already marked billed are left out. Free: last 7 days.
```

### `report`

- 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
Timesheet report: total tracked hours and billable money for a period, optionally grouped by (group by) project, day, task or tag - hours per project, how much to bill. Omit group_by for the plain total per currency.
```

## Changes things (11)

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

### `entry_add`

- The name "entry_add" says "add": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Log time already worked as one entry and return its id, duration and amount. Give start plus end or minutes. rate is hourly in MAJOR units and is frozen on the entry, so a later rate change never moves it.
```

### `entry_edit`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Change one logged entry by id; only the fields you pass move. minutes keeps start and moves end, an end at or before start is refused, tags REPLACES the list, and rate is hourly in MAJOR units.
```

### `entry_log`

- The name "entry_log" says "log": a word for reading.
- The server marks it as not read-only (readOnlyHint: false).
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Log work time for a client/project in one step: minutes worked plus an optional note. The entry starts now minus the minutes, so it lands on today's day and week summaries.
```

### `license_activate`

- 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
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.
```

### `project_set_rate`

- The name "project_set_rate" says "set": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Set the hourly rate and currency used to turn tracked hours into money for a project or client. Returns the new rate and, when re-rating is asked for, how many already logged entries changed.
```

### `summary_client`

- 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
All-time totals for one client/project: hours, entry count and billable amount, with a per-day breakdown.
```

### `summary_day`

- 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
Total hours logged for one calendar day (local date, default today), broken down per project.
```

### `summary_week`

- 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
Total hours logged in the week containing today (Mon-Sun, local dates), broken down per project.
```

### `target_set`

- The name "target_set" says "set": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Set a weekly hours goal used by target_check. Stored locally.
```

### `timer_start`

- The name "timer_start" says "start": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Start a stopwatch for work on a project and return the start time. Only one runs at a time: a new one stops and logs the previous, naming it. rate is an hourly rate in MAJOR units for this timer only.
```

### `timer_stop`

- The name "timer_stop" says "stop": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Stop the running timer and log it as one entry. Returns the duration, the money at the rate in force and the new entry id. With no timer running it says so and writes nothing.
```

## Only reads (4)

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

### `entry_list`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List logged entries as a table of id, day, start, project, task, hours, billable, tags and note, newest first, with total hours. Free reads the last 7 days and says so; Pro reads the whole history.
```

### `license_status`

- The name "license_status" says "status": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
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.
```

### `target_check`

- The description's first verb is "compare": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Compare hours logged this week (Mon-Sun, local dates) against the weekly target from target_set.
```

### `timer_status`

- The name "timer_status" says "status": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Report the running timer and today's total hours. Today is the local calendar day, so a timer started at 23:30 yesterday contributes only the minutes since midnight. No arguments, and it writes nothing.
```
