## Only reads (4)

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

### `about_the_data`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Returns the licence (CC BY 4.0) and credit form, what is not served, the store setting, the published index weeks and the basket date range with its short and missing days. Use it before citing or relying on the other tools.
```

### `get_shelf_price_index`

- The name "get_shelf_price_index" says "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Returns one published week of the free UK or Australian online shelf-price index (CC BY 4.0): index levels, week-on-week change and matched-product counts by retailer and product class. Use it for "how did posted grocery shelf prices move this week". Not a CPI, not prices paid, no product names. Omit vintage for the latest week; call list_index_vintages for the others.
```

### `list_index_vintages`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Returns the published weeks (vintages) of the free UK or Australian online shelf-price index, newest first, with publication time, revision and base week. Use it before get_shelf_price_index to pick a week. Not for prices.
```

### `lookup_basket_prices`

- The name "lookup_basket_prices" says "lookup": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Returns posted shelf prices from the free UK daily 212-item basket (CC BY 4.0) for up to 20 barcodes (EAN) or retailer product ids, up to one row per retailer for one day: price, was-price, loyalty price, unit price, pack size and stock. Use it for "what did this barcode cost at Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda or Aldi on a day". Static snapshot days, not live. Not for searching by product name, and only the 212 basket products are covered.
```
