## Exfil surface

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

| 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. | `mcp__weather__fetch` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | `mcp__weather__history` |

## Findings

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The description's first verb is "open": a word for a change.
```

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

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

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.
```


## Can't be undone (1)

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

### `history`

- The input addresses people (input.to): what it sends cannot be taken back.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Tag outbound: The input takes a destination (input.to): what the tool writes goes there.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
As-issued history for backtests (no look-ahead): kind=daily (every source's daily hi/lo/rain per run at a place), nbm (NBM text columns: TXN, XND, P12, Q12; view=day = the books' day view) or obs (settlement truth: CLI, routine-METAR max/min). from/to (<= 366 days, 1 unit per 31 days); run=ISO | lead=N (+cycle=H: the run issued N days before) | asof=ISO (what was known then). Rows carry fetched_at and origin (bf:* = backfilled). TSV by default.
```

## Changes things (4)

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

### `forecast`

- 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
Daily high/low for any place from every free forecast: median, spread, rain, current obs and active alerts, with credits and the page URL. line ≈321 tok, week ≈566, table ≈1,567, series ≈1,564. Keep the credits and link the page when you repeat numbers. size=runs: one place, each source's newest runs by day with run_utc and fetched_at; NBM adds XND, P12, Q12. variable=rain: members' share of 0.01 in or more and heavier (n = model families), NBM calibrated, amounts by source, so far today, month to date; rain line ≈647 tok, table ≈1,955.
```

### `markets`

- 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
Weather markets in a place (Kalshi, Polymarket high/low/rain): settlement station and rule, the number so far under that rule, our value and the official result once settled, forecast daily max/min at the station. No prices. Needs place or family. line ≈520 tok, table ≈1,757; every city ≈36,291. With neither: the list of market cities.
```

### `receipts`

- 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
How often our settle value matched the venue's result, with every miss. No prices.
```

### `sources`

- The description's first verb is "open": 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
Open sources groundhog uses: licence, latest run, age, status.
```

## Only reads (3)

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

### `fetch`

- The name "fetch" says "fetch": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "url": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
The 7-day forecast of a place id from search: {id, title, text, url, metadata}. Keep the credits and link the url when you repeat numbers.
```

### `places`

- The description's first verb is "find": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find a place slug by name, City, ST, airport code or lat,lon; says full blend or grid only.
```

### `search`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search places by name, City, ST, airport code or lat,lon. Returns {results: [{id, title, url, text}]}; pass an id to fetch.
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `weather`:

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__weather__places",
      "mcp__weather__search",
      "mcp__weather__fetch"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__weather__forecast",
      "mcp__weather__sources",
      "mcp__weather__markets",
      "mcp__weather__receipts",
      "mcp__weather__history"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__weather__fetch`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__weather__history`: outbound
