## Exfil surface

20 private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound paths in this server alone. Denying 2 outbound tools breaks every one: `mcp__ctx__pack_docs`, `mcp__ctx__search_docs`.

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

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (1)

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

### `pack_docs`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "crawl": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
- 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
Crawl a documentation site from a start URL and return it as one agent-ready context blob: each page extracted to clean Markdown, concatenated with its URL. Stays within the same site section; bounded by depth and page count. Use max_tokens to fit a budget.
```

## Only reads (5)

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

### `get_file`

- The name "get_file" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The name "get_file" says "get" and "file": it reads files. The description's first sentence says "return" and "file": it reads files. The input names a repo (input.repo), and the tool reads: it reads repositories.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Return the full text of a single file in a repository, by path. Use after list_files or search_context to drill in.
```

### `list_files`

- The name "list_files" says "list": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The name "list_files" says "list" and "file": it reads files. The description's first sentence says "list" and "file": it reads files. The input names a repo (input.repo), and the tool reads: it reads repositories.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List the text files ctx would include for a repository (after stripping binaries, lockfiles and build dirs), with their byte sizes. Cheap way for an agent to see the layout before packing.
```

### `pack_repo`

- The description's first verb is "fetch": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The name "pack_repo" says "repo": it reads repositories. The description's first sentence says "fetch" and "repository": it reads repositories. The input names a repo (input.repo), and the tool reads: it reads repositories.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Fetch a GitHub repository and return it as one agent-ready context blob: text files concatenated with clear "==== path ====" headers, binaries/lockfiles/build dirs stripped, with a token estimate. Use include/exclude globs to focus, and max_tokens to fit a budget.
```

### `search_context`

- The name "search_context" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "search" and "repository": it reads repositories. The input names a repo (input.repo), and the tool reads: it reads repositories.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search a GitHub repository and return only the passages that match a query — each with its file path, line number and a relevance score. Far more token-efficient than pack_repo when you need a specific detail (e.g. "where is auth handled?").
```

### `search_docs`

- The name "search_docs" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The name "search_docs" says "search" and "doc": it reads documents.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "crawl": it reads web pages, which anyone can write. The input takes a URL (input.url), and the tool reads it: it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.
- Claude Code: ask, because it is tagged outbound.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Crawl a documentation site and return only the passages that match a query — each with its page URL, line and a relevance score. Token-efficient way to answer a question from docs without packing the whole site.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__ctx__pack_repo",
      "mcp__ctx__search_context",
      "mcp__ctx__list_files",
      "mcp__ctx__get_file"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__ctx__pack_docs",
      "mcp__ctx__search_docs"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__ctx__pack_repo`: private-data
- `mcp__ctx__search_context`: private-data
- `mcp__ctx__list_files`: private-data
- `mcp__ctx__get_file`: private-data
- `mcp__ctx__pack_docs`: untrusted-input, outbound
- `mcp__ctx__search_docs`: private-data, untrusted-input, outbound

## Remote posture

What an anonymous client saw at the remote endpoint, last 2026-10-22T15:07:12.570Z, unchanged since 2026-10-22T15:07:12.570Z. 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 |

| HTTP status of an anonymous initialize | `200` |
| tools/list served without credentials | `yes` |

- **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 1 tool that changes things (1 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://ctx.vanshul.com/mcp: tools/list returned 6 tools to an anonymous client, including pack_docs (write)
