## Exfil surface

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

| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | `mcp__scalingo__get_account` `mcp__scalingo__list_addon_providers` `mcp__scalingo__list_addons` `mcp__scalingo__list_regions` |
| untrusted-input | Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments. | `mcp__scalingo__get_account` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | none |

## Findings

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true}; The name "scalingo_request" says "request": a word for a change.
```


## Deletes or cancels (4)

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

### `restart_app`

- The name "restart_app" says "restart": a word for a change.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
MUTATES Scalingo infrastructure — restarts an app's containers. Optionally restart only specific process types via scope; omit scope to restart everything. Returns 202 Accepted (track via get_operation). Scalingo API: POST /v1/apps/{app}/restart.
```

### `scale_app`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
MUTATES Scalingo infrastructure — sets the container formation (number and/or size of each process type). Only the container types you include are changed. Returns 202 Accepted (track via get_operation). Scalingo API: POST /v1/apps/{app}/scale.
```

### `set_variables`

- The name "set_variables" says "set": a word for a change.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
MUTATES Scalingo infrastructure — creates or updates environment variables in bulk (each { name, value } is created if new or updated if it exists). This usually triggers a restart to apply the new env. Names ≤64 chars, values ≤8192 chars. Scalingo API: PUT /v1/apps/{app}/variables. Returns { variables }.
```

### `trigger_deployment`

- The name "trigger_deployment" says "trigger": a word for a change.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
MUTATES Scalingo infrastructure — triggers a new deployment from a source archive URL (a tar.gz reachable by Scalingo). To roll back, re-deploy a previous git_ref/archive — there is no separate rollback endpoint. Scalingo API: POST /v1/apps/{app}/deployments. Returns { deployment }.
```

## Changes things (1)

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

### `scalingo_request`

- The name "scalingo_request" says "request": 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
Power-user escape hatch: GET any Scalingo API path not wrapped by a dedicated tool. READ-ONLY — only GET is allowed. Path is taken after /v1 (e.g. "/apps/my-app/alerts"). By default hits the regional API; set on_auth_host:true for auth-host resources (regions, scm_integrations, tokens). Scalingo API: GET {path}.
```

## Only reads (16)

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

### `get_account`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Fetch the authenticated user's account (id, email, username, fullname, company). Scalingo API: GET /v1/users/self. Returns { user }.

### `get_app_logs`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Fetch recent application log lines. Scalingo returns an authenticated logs_url (GET /v1/apps/{app}/logs → { logs_url }); this tool then downloads the last N lines from it (dump mode) and returns them as text. Returns { logs_url, lines }. If the follow-up download fails, only logs_url is returned so you can fetch it yourself.
```

### `get_app_stats`

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

## Remote posture

What an anonymous client saw at the remote endpoint, last 2026-10-22T15:30:53.837Z, unchanged since 2026-10-22T15:30:53.837Z. No credentials were sent and no tool was called. Values are shown as the endpoint returned them. Method: https://anlyon.dev/methodology#remote-posture

| Fact | Observed |

| Reachable | `yes` |
| HTTP status of an anonymous initialize | `200` |
| tools/list served without credentials | `yes` |
| Tools that change things, listed without credentials | `5` |
| Protocol version | `2025-06-18` |

- **high** Tools that change things, listed to anyone ([unauth-remote-writes](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#unauth-remote-writes))

```untrusted-server-text
The endpoint served tools/list without credentials, and the list has 5 tools that change things (4 destructive, 1 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://scalingo.usefulapi.io/mcp: tools/list returned 21 tools to an anonymous client, including restart_app (destructive), scale_app (destructive), set_variables (destructive), trigger_deployment (destructive), scalingo_request (write)
