## Findings

- **warn** Annotations that disagree with the tool in `latest_updates` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "latest_updates" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The name "latest_updates" says "update": a word for a change.
```


## Changes things (1)

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

### `latest_updates`

- The name "latest_updates" says "update": a word for a change.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Recent dated news (tests, launches, funding, delays, papers) with a short summary, the story page and the original source URL. Optionally filter by frontier, company, or program (program needs company or frontier). `sort: top` ranks by importance instead of recency.
```

## Only reads (4)

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

### `get_company`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
A company as context for its programs: what it does, HQ, founding, status/listing, valuation and staff (with dates and provenance), its programs with stage and next milestone, technical approach, open problems, people, recent funding, partners, and its latest news.
```

### `get_frontier`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Survey a whole area of technology: the frontier's fields (with a one-line explainer each) and their programs sorted by importance, with stage and next milestone. Without `frontier` it lists every frontier with its slug. Use `field` to narrow to one field (slugs come back in the result).
```

### `get_program`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Everything known about one technology program: goal, development stage, current status, next milestone and slips, milestone history, current obstacles, physics limits, how it works, key specs, upcoming events and its most important dated news with source links. Identify it by `frontier` + `program` slugs (from its URL /<frontier>/<program>, or from `search`), or by `company` + `program`.
```

### `search`

- The name "search" says "search": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find technology programs (e.g. Starship, Figure 03, a fusion reactor), companies and frontiers by name or keyword. Use this first when you only have a name or topic; it returns the slugs `get_program` / `get_company` / `get_frontier` take, plus page URLs.
```

## Claude Code permissions
