**3 tools: 3 change things.**

| Group | Class | Tools | Claude Code |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |

| Only reads | read | 0 | allow |

## Exfil surface

No private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound path in this server alone: no tool is tagged private-data or untrusted-input or outbound.

| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | none |
| untrusted-input | Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments. | none |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | none |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (3)

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

### `agent_lease_lock`

- The name "agent_lease_lock" says "lock": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Hosted distributed lease lock for agents: acquire/renew/release a named lock with a TTL and a monotonic fencing token so only one agent does a job at a time. Share state by namespace
```

### `agent_spend_ledger`

- 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
Hosted shared spend ledger for agents: set a budget ceiling, atomically reserve before paying (never overspends, even with many agents at once), then settle or release. Idempotent. Share state by namespace
```

### `mcp_usage_metering`

- 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
Record a metered usage event for any MCP tool call and return an invoice line preview (dry run)
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `usage-metering`:

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__usage-metering__mcp_usage_metering",
      "mcp__usage-metering__agent_spend_ledger",
      "mcp__usage-metering__agent_lease_lock"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

## Remote posture

What an anonymous client saw at the remote endpoint, last 2026-11-04T02:20:09.787Z, unchanged since 2026-11-04T02:20:09.787Z. 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 | `3` |
| 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 3 tools that change things (3 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://gap-functions.bfurrow26.workers.dev/mcp: tools/list returned 3 tools to an anonymous client, including mcp_usage_metering (write), agent_spend_ledger (write), agent_lease_lock (write)
```
