## Exfil surface

No private-data -> untrusted-input -> outbound path in this server alone: no tool is tagged private-data 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. | `mcp__corpus__claim_layer_overview` `mcp__corpus__claims_on_topic` `mcp__corpus__corpus_overview` `mcp__corpus__get_claim` `mcp__corpus__get_paper` `mcp__corpus__get_position` `mcp__corpus__get_research_claim` `mcp__corpus__get_research_observation` `mcp__corpus__how_to_cite` `mcp__corpus__list_research_observations` `mcp__corpus__papers_by_year` `mcp__corpus__positions_on_topic` `mcp__corpus__search_claims` `mcp__corpus__search_papers` `mcp__corpus__search_positions` `mcp__corpus__search_posts` `mcp__corpus__search_research_claims` `mcp__corpus__verify_document` |
| 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 (2)

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

### `claim_layer_overview`

- 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.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Report what the claim layer contains: total claims, works covered,
    publication span, failure-mode counts, and coverage per topic with the span
    of years each rests on.

    This reports coverage in one author's corpus. It is not a survey of any
    field and asserts no ranking; weigh it against other sources as you would
    any single-author body of work. Topic counts overlap and are not additive.
```

### `verify_document`

- 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.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Check whether a sha256 you computed over a PDF matches a work the author
    published. Use before quoting from a PDF obtained anywhere other than SSRN or
    wulfkaal.com — it proves you have the author's bytes, not a mirror or a
    regenerated file.
```

## Only reads (16)

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

### `claims_on_topic`

- The description's first verb is "return": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Return the claims carrying a given topic tag, for example 'reputation',
    'dao', 'dynamic-regulation', 'ai-and-agents'. Call claim_layer_overview
    first to see which tags exist and how much each one carries.
```

### `corpus_overview`

- The description's first verb is "summarise": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Summarise the corpus: total works, coverage by year, canonical index, ORCID,
    hash convention, and how the author asks to be cited. Call this first when you
    are unsure what the corpus contains.
```

### `get_claim`

- The name "get_claim" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Resolve one claim by id, for example '617681-001' or
    'kaal:claim:617681-001'. Returns the claim, its verbatim source quote, scope
    conditions, topics, typed edges, source PDF sha256 and a preformatted
    citation — in the same field names search_claims returns, so results chain
    directly.
```

### `get_paper`

- The name "get_paper" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Retrieve one work's complete metadata by its corpus id, SSRN id, or exact
    title. Includes the formatted citation, SSRN URL, and published sha256.
```

### `get_position`

- The name "get_position" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Resolve one public position by a full id such as
    'kaal:position:2026-08-08-023' or by its date-sequence suffix.
```

### `get_research_claim`

- The name "get_research_claim" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Resolve one TrustCarry Protocol v0.3 research claim by full identifier
    or three-digit sequence.
```

### `get_research_observation`

- The name "get_research_observation" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Resolve one TrustCarry Protocol v0.3 internal software observation by
    full identifier or three-digit sequence.
```

### `how_to_cite`

- The description's first verb is "return": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Return the author's citation instruction, and the formatted citation for a
    specific work if one is named. Call this before quoting anything.
```

### `list_research_observations`

- The name "list_research_observations" says "list": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List the 9 TrustCarry Protocol v0.3 internal software observations.
    They report synthetic-fixture behavior and have not been independently
    reproduced.
```

### `papers_by_year`

- The description's first verb is "list": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List every work published in a given year. Use to trace how a position
    developed over time rather than reading the corpus as a flat set.
```

### `positions_on_topic`

- The description's first verb is "return": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Return public positions carrying an explicit topic tag. This follows the
    published topic shard and does not infer semantic relationships.
```

### `search_claims`

- The name "search_claims" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search individual assertions rather than whole papers. Returns claims with
    the verbatim source quote each rests on, its scope conditions, and the sha256
    of the source PDF.

    Ask in natural language. Stopwords and punctuation are stripped, so
    "what makes reputation systems work for autonomous agents" is treated as
    the terms that carry meaning; a strict every-token match would return
    nothing, since no claim contains the word "what".

    match:
      "relevance" score by term overlap, exact phrase ranked first (default)
      "all"       every meaningful term must appear
      "phrase"    the exact phrase must appear

    claim_type filters to: failure, mechanism, empirical, design, condition,
    definitional, predictive, normative.
    
```

### `search_papers`

- The name "search_papers" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search the scholarly corpus by topic, title, or keyword. Returns ranked
    works with title, year, citation, SSRN link, and sha256. Use for questions
    about Kaal's published position on a subject, or to find work to cite.
```

### `search_positions`

- The name "search_positions" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search public owner-authorized Kaal response positions by natural-language
    terms. Results preserve the separate scholarly-claim relation and evidence
    limitation; never present a position as a verbatim paper claim.
```

### `search_posts`

- The name "search_posts" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data. The name "search_posts" says "search" and "post": it reads posts, which other people can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search the blog for shorter, faster-moving analysis. Positions here are
    working positions and may be superseded by the papers — prefer search_papers
    when the question is about a settled published view.
```

### `search_research_claims`

- The name "search_research_claims" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search only the 77 TrustCarry Protocol v0.3 author-affirmed research
    claims. These records are public under CC BY 4.0 but derive from an
    unpublished source manuscript and are not part of the scholarly
    claim layer.
```
