## Findings

- **info** The word "credentials" in `orderdesk_get_store` ([credentials-mention](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#credentials-mention))

```untrusted-server-text
The description mentions "credentials".

description: "...shipping methods). The API key and mail credentials are never returned. GET /store."
```

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"openWorldHint":true}; The name "orderdesk_get_store" says "get": a word for reading.
```

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"openWorldHint":true}; The name "orderdesk_list_inventory_items" says "list": a word for reading.
```

- The name "orderdesk_add_order_item" says "add": a word for a change.

```

### `orderdesk_add_shipment`

- The name "orderdesk_add_shipment" says "add": a word for a change.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
WRITE: record a shipment (carrier and tracking number) against an order. One shipment per parcel; several shipments represent a partial fulfillment. Use "n/a" when there is no tracking number. If tracking_url is omitted Order Desk derives it. POST /orders/{order_id}/shipments.
```

### `orderdesk_create_inventory_item`

- The name "orderdesk_create_inventory_item" says "create": a word for a change.
- The input takes a statement or command to run (input.code), which can change anything it can reach.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
WRITE: add a new order to the store. Needs at least one item, and a name or company in the shipping or customer address (if only one address is given the other is copied from it). Omit folder_id to land in the first folder. Order Desk rejects an order it recognizes as a duplicate and names the existing order id. POST /orders.
```

### `orderdesk_move_orders`

- The name "orderdesk_move_orders" says "move": a word for a change.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

WRITE: move one or more orders to another folder. Moving runs the rules attached to the destination folder (which can send e-mail, call fulfillment services, etc.) and writes a history entry. Pass exactly one of destination_folder_id or destination_folder_name (see orderdesk_get_store). Returns each order's previous folder. POST /move-orders.

- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
WRITE: change fields of an inventory item, for example its stock count. Order Desk's PUT replaces the whole record, so this reads the item, applies only the fields you pass (metadata and variation keys are merged) and sends the complete record back. PUT /inventory-items/{inventory_item_id}.
```

### `orderdesk_update_order`

- The name "orderdesk_update_order" says "update": a word for a change.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
WRITE: change fields of an existing order. Order Desk's PUT replaces the whole record, so this reads the order, applies only the fields you pass (shipping/customer address fields and checkout_data/order_metadata keys are merged into what is there, other values replaced) and sends the complete record back, items included. The order keeps its folder; use orderdesk_move_orders to move it. PUT /orders/{order_id}.
```

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

### `orderdesk_get_store`

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

```

### `orderdesk_list_inventory_items`

- The name "orderdesk_list_inventory_items" says "list": a word for reading.
- The input takes a statement or command to run (input.code), which can change anything it can reach.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text

The endpoint served tools/list without credentials, and the list has 10 tools that change things (8 destructive, 2 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://order-desk.usefulapi.io/mcp: tools/list returned 15 tools to an anonymous client, including orderdesk_create_order (destructive), orderdesk_update_order (destructive), orderdesk_add_order_item (destructive), orderdesk_add_order_note (destructive), orderdesk_add_shipment (destructive) and 5 more
