## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Changes things (5)

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

### `geoapify_geocode_autocomplete`

- 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.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Address autocomplete — suggest completed addresses/places for a partial query, ideal for as-you-type inputs. Geoapify REST: GET /v1/geocode/autocomplete.
```

### `geoapify_geocode_reverse`

- 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.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Reverse geocoding — turn coordinates into the nearest address / place. Geoapify REST: GET /v1/geocode/reverse.
```

### `geoapify_ip_geolocation`

- 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.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Look up the approximate location (country, city, coordinates) of an IP address. Geoapify REST: GET /v1/ipinfo.
```

### `geoapify_isoline`

- 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.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Compute a reachability isoline (isochrone/isodistance) — the area reachable from a point within a time or distance budget. Geoapify REST: GET /v1/isoline.
```

### `geoapify_routing`

- 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.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Compute a route between waypoints for a travel mode, returning distance, time and legs. Geoapify REST: GET /v1/routing.
```

## Only reads (3)

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

### `geoapify_geocode_search`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Forward geocoding — turn a free-form address or place name into coordinates and structured address parts. Geoapify REST: GET /v1/geocode/search.
```

### `geoapify_place_details`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get detailed information (and optionally geometry/features) for a place. Provide either `id` (the `place_id` returned by geoapify_places) OR both `lat` and `lon`. Geoapify REST: GET /v2/place-details.
```

### `geoapify_places`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text

```
