## Exfil surface

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

| 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. | none |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | none |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Can't be undone (2)

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

### `settle_payment`

- The name "settle_payment" says "payment": a word that usually means money moves, which cannot be taken back.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Broadcasts the payment on-chain and moves real funds; it is idempotent per signed payload, so resubmitting the identical payload returns the recorded outcome. Treat errorReason "settlement_pending" as unresolved and call again with the identical arguments to poll.
```

### `verify_payment`

- The name "verify_payment" says "payment": a word that usually means money moves, which cannot be taken back.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Verifies a signed x402 payment payload against the supplied payment requirements. It checks validity but moves no funds.
```

## Only reads (3)

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

### `get_discovery_stats`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Returns aggregate statistics for the PayAI Bazaar catalog and its settlement activity. Use it for a compact view of catalog size and payment volume rather than individual resources.
```

### `get_supported`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Returns the payment networks, schemes, assets, and facilitator addresses currently supported by PayAI. Use it before constructing payment requirements when you need live capability data.
```

### `list_discovery_resources`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Lists x402-payable resources published in the PayAI Bazaar catalog. Use limit and offset to page through APIs, MCP tools, and agent services available for discovery.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__facilitator__get_supported",
      "mcp__facilitator__list_discovery_resources",
      "mcp__facilitator__get_discovery_stats"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__facilitator__verify_payment",
      "mcp__facilitator__settle_payment"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

## Remote posture

What an anonymous client saw at the remote endpoint, last 2026-10-22T15:11:20.018Z, unchanged since 2026-10-22T15:11:20.018Z. 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 | `2` |
| Protocol version | `2025-06-18` |
| WWW-Authenticate on 401 | `not observed` |
| resource_metadata in WWW-Authenticate | `none` |
| RFC 9728 protected resource metadata | `none` |
| Authorization servers | `none` |
| Legacy HTTP+SSE transport | `no` |
| Dynamic client registration | `not observed` |
| Client ID metadata documents | `not observed` |

- **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 2 tools that change things (2 irreversible). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://facilitator.payai.network/mcp: tools/list returned 5 tools to an anonymous client, including verify_payment (irreversible), settle_payment (irreversible)
```
