## Exfil surface

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

| 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. | none |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | `mcp__maxmind-minfraud__minfraud_factors` `mcp__maxmind-minfraud__minfraud_insights` `mcp__maxmind-minfraud__minfraud_score` |

## Findings

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true}; The input carries an amount (input.order.amount) and a currency, so it moves money.
```

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true}; The input carries an amount (input.order.amount) and a currency, so it moves money.
```

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true}; The input carries an amount (input.order.amount) and a currency, so it moves money.
```


## Deletes or cancels (1)

Removes, cancels or revokes something. Claude Code: deny.

### `minfraud_report_transaction`

- The description's first verb is "write": a word for a change.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
WRITE — submits fraud feedback to MaxMind. Report the real-world outcome of a transaction (e.g. it was a chargeback or confirmed fraud) so minFraud can improve future scoring. This mutates MaxMind's model of your traffic; it is not a read. Requires a `tag` and at least one identifier (ip_address, maxmind_id, minfraud_id, or transaction_id). API: POST /minfraud/v2.0/transactions/report (returns HTTP 204).
```

## Can't be undone (3)

Sends, pays, publishes or merges: once done, it cannot be taken back. Claude Code: ask.

### `minfraud_factors`

- The input carries an amount (input.order.amount) and a currency, so it moves money.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a destination (input.billing.phone_number): what the tool writes goes there.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
The most detailed assessment: everything in Insights PLUS risk_score_reasons and per-factor subscores explaining WHY the score is what it is. Same request body as minfraud_score. API: POST /minfraud/v2.0/factors.
```

### `minfraud_insights`

- The input carries an amount (input.order.amount) and a currency, so it moves money.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a destination (input.billing.phone_number): what the tool writes goes there.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Score a transaction AND get detailed risk insights: IP geolocation, email/address/device attributes, and per-component risk on top of the risk_score. Same request body as minfraud_score. API: POST /minfraud/v2.0/insights.
```

### `minfraud_score`

- The input carries an amount (input.order.amount) and a currency, so it moves money.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a destination (input.billing.phone_number): what the tool writes goes there.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Score a transaction for fraud risk. Returns the overall risk_score (0.01–99), IP risk, disposition, and remaining query funds — the lightest, cheapest assessment. Send at least device.ip_address (plus email/billing/order for a better score). API: POST /minfraud/v2.0/score.
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `maxmind-minfraud`:

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__maxmind-minfraud__minfraud_score",
      "mcp__maxmind-minfraud__minfraud_insights",
      "mcp__maxmind-minfraud__minfraud_factors"
    ],
    "deny": [
      "mcp__maxmind-minfraud__minfraud_report_transaction"
    ]
  }
}
```

Capability tags behind the rules (a read tagged outbound is asked about):

- `mcp__maxmind-minfraud__minfraud_score`: outbound
- `mcp__maxmind-minfraud__minfraud_insights`: outbound
- `mcp__maxmind-minfraud__minfraud_factors`: outbound
