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

### `get_device`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get full details for one device by its id from search_devices: a number for maxforlive.com catalogue devices, or a string starting with m4l_ for devices submitted to max4.live by their author.
```

### `list_filters`

- The name "list_filters" says "list": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List the valid values for the type, license and sort filters of search_devices.
```

### `search_devices`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search 9,000+ Max for Live devices for Ableton Live: the maxforlive.com catalogue (indexed until 2026-08-07) plus devices submitted to max4.live by their authors (origin "own", ids starting m4l_). Fuzzy full-text match (title/author/description, identical to max4.live) plus filters. Compose for natural language, e.g. "popular free MIDI devices from the last 2 weeks" -> type=[MIDI Effect,MIDI Generator,MIDI Transformation], license=[free], sort=downloads, added_after=<date>.
```
