Changes things 1Claude Code: ask
  • render_spintaxRenders up to 20 variants.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • 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
    Renders up to 20 variants. With a seed the output is deterministic (variant i uses seed "<seed>#<i>"); without one it is random. The engine is lenient: structural mistakes never throw, they surface in the output — run validate_spintax first.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: true
    • idempotentHint: false
    • openWorldHint: false

  • analyze_spintaxReports what the template needs and contains: refs (variables referenced), sets (#set macros, re-picked per reference), defs (#def, rolled once per render), includes, diagnostics, …No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "analyze_spintax" says "analyze": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Reports what the template needs and contains: refs (variables referenced), sets (#set macros, re-picked per reference), defs (#def, rolled once per render), includes, diagnostics, and best-effort construct counts. Answers "what variables must I supply" — it is NOT a variant-cardinality counter.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: true
    • idempotentHint: true
    • openWorldHint: false
  • spintax_authoring_guideRead this BEFORE writing or editing a spintax template — it is the canonical authoring guide the whole spintax toolchain is written against, not a tutorial.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "read": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Read this BEFORE writing or editing a spintax template — it is the canonical authoring guide the whole spintax toolchain is written against, not a tutorial. Pass the locale you will author in: for ru/uk/be and sr/hr/bs it carries the agreement and case rules that decide whether the variants read as human writing, which is the hard part and the part a valid template can still get wrong; for ar, the six plural forms and their order. Returns text to read, not a template.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: true
    • idempotentHint: true
    • openWorldHint: false
  • validate_spintaxStatic validation: returns diagnostics with severity, stable code, message and 1-based line/column.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "validate_spintax" says "validate": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Static validation: returns diagnostics with severity, stable code, message and 1-based line/column. No "error"-severity diagnostic means the template is structurally sound — read the warnings before rendering, because some of them (plural.locale-missing) mean a block will not resolve. Pass knownVariables for names you will supply at render time to silence their variable.undefined warnings.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: true
    • idempotentHint: true
    • openWorldHint: false

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
