## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Deletes or cancels (3)

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

### `waitwhile_cancel_visit`

- The name "waitwhile_cancel_visit" says "cancel": a word for removing or ending something.
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
WRITE: cancel ONE visit (a waitlist entry or booking). Waitwhile sets its state to COMPLETE and adds the CANCELLED tag; the visit is kept, not deleted. By default the request asks Waitwhile to suppress the customer message; this may only stop the immediate cancellation notice, and scheduled reminders/follow-ups can still go out per the location's settings. With send_notifications=true Waitwhile may text/e-mail this ONE customer. POST /visits/{visitId}/cancel.
```

### `waitwhile_create_visit`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
WRITE: create ONE visit at a location. Without a date it adds the customer to the waitlist; with a local date-time (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm) it creates a booking. Needs a location and at least a name, phone or e-mail. Not idempotent: calling it twice creates two visits. Visit notes are not supported here (the field is deprecated): use waitwhile_add_customer_note. By default the request asks Waitwhile to suppress the customer message; this may only stop the immediate confirmation, and scheduled reminders/follow-ups can still go out per the location's settings. With send_notifications=true Waitwhile may text/e-mail this ONE customer. POST /visits.
```

### `waitwhile_update_visit`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
WRITE: change ONE visit — its state (e.g. WAITING to SERVING to COMPLETE, or BOOKED), add/remove tags (e.g. ARRIVED, CONFIRMED, NO-SHOW), booking date/duration or party size. Only the fields you pass change. By default the request asks Waitwhile to suppress the customer message; this may only stop the immediate status message, and scheduled reminders/follow-ups can still go out per the location's settings. With send_notifications=true Waitwhile may text/e-mail this ONE customer. Use waitwhile_cancel_visit to cancel. POST /visits/{visitId}.
```

## Changes things (4)

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

### `waitwhile_add_customer_note`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
WRITE: add one staff note to a customer's record (optionally tied to a visit and location). Adds only; nothing is edited or sent to the customer. POST /customers/{customerId}/notes.
```

### `waitwhile_first_available_slots`

- 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

```

### `waitwhile_resources_availability`

- 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
Working hours/availability of a location's resources on a date (e.g. who is working today). GET /resources/availability.
```

### `waitwhile_visit_analytics`

- 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
Aggregated visit statistics for a period: visits, waitlisted, bookings, served, no-shows, cancellations, wait and serve duration quantiles, and breakdowns by location, resource, service, party size, user, day of week and hour of day. GET /analytics/visits (JSON).
