## Exfil surface

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

| 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__scrapingbot__amazonProduct` `mcp__scrapingbot__amazonProducts` `mcp__scrapingbot__amazonRankings` `mcp__scrapingbot__amazonSearch` `mcp__scrapingbot__amazonSuggestions` `mcp__scrapingbot__extractStructuredData` `mcp__scrapingbot__getScrapeJob` `mcp__scrapingbot__googleReviews` `mcp__scrapingbot__googleSearch` `mcp__scrapingbot__instagramFollowers` `mcp__scrapingbot__instagramMedia` `mcp__scrapingbot__instagramSearch` `mcp__scrapingbot__instagramUser` `mcp__scrapingbot__pollJobUntilDone` `mcp__scrapingbot__providerRequest` `mcp__scrapingbot__runBrowserScenario` `mcp__scrapingbot__scrapeWebsite` `mcp__scrapingbot__tiktokComments` `mcp__scrapingbot__tiktokFollowers` `mcp__scrapingbot__tiktokSearch` `mcp__scrapingbot__tiktokUser` `mcp__scrapingbot__tiktokVideo` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | `mcp__scrapingbot__extractStructuredData` `mcp__scrapingbot__instagramMedia` `mcp__scrapingbot__instagramUser` `mcp__scrapingbot__providerRequest` `mcp__scrapingbot__runBrowserScenario` `mcp__scrapingbot__scrapeWebsite` `mcp__scrapingbot__tiktokComments` `mcp__scrapingbot__tiktokVideo` |
