## Exfil surface

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


## Changes things (3)

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

### `about_pure_report`

- 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 Pure Report works — the bias scale, neutralization method, the two-gate verification for event accounts, lean labeling, coverage scope (topic list), and the support contact. Call this to cite the source or explain its methodology to a user.
```

### `check_feedback`

- 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
Look up feedback you filed with submit_feedback, using the ref it returned (e.g. PR-7F3K2Q). Returns the current status (open, answered, closed) and the operator's reply once one exists. Replies are written by a human and are not immediate — poll sparingly, on the order of hours or days, not seconds.
```

### `submit_feedback`

- The name "submit_feedback" says "submit": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Report a problem or request to Pure Report's operator and get a tracking ref back. Use this when the data looks wrong — a bias score or outlet lean that doesn't match the source, an event cluster mixing unrelated stories, a missing neutral writeup, a broken article — or to ask a methodology question or request a capability. Include the article_id or event_slug you were looking at; that context is what makes a report actionable. A human reads these: replies take time and are not guaranteed. Call check_feedback with the returned ref to read the reply.
```

## Only reads (5)

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

### `compare_coverage`

- The name "compare_coverage" says "compare": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Show how outlets across the political spectrum framed one event: a per-outlet bias-score spectrum and, where they editorialized, the verbatim framing quotes grouped by left/center/right. The core 'compare the coverage' view — use it to detect slant and consensus.
```

### `get_article`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Fetch one article by id: neutral title + short summary with key facts (null for older articles), source_url for the full story, a bias_score for the ORIGINAL source (not the summary), source, extracted entities, and the events it belongs to.
```

### `get_event`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get the full neutral writeup of one news event by slug: 'story', Pure Report's own neutral news story (headline + paragraphs, written from the outlets' reports and checked before publishing); 'account', a sentence-cited breakdown (lede, what-we-know bullets with verbatim source receipts, single-source attributed items) when one passed its gates; and a coverage census (how many outlets by political lean, earliest report). Either writeup may be null; the census is always returned.
```

### `search_news`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search Pure Report's neutral, bias-scored news. Returns articles with neutral summaries in our own words; bias_score (0-100) rates the ORIGINAL source reporting (0 = wire-neutral, 100 = advocacy), NOT the returned summary, which is neutral by design. Each result also lists the event(s) it belongs to — pass an event slug to get_event for the neutral writeup or compare_coverage for cross-outlet framing. Ranked by relevance and recency.
```

### `trending_events`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List the news events with the most current coverage activity. Each event clusters many outlets' articles about one story and includes headline (the published story's headline, else the event name), has_story (get_event returns Pure Report's neutral news story) and has_account (get_event also returns a sentence-cited account with verbatim receipts). Returns slugs to pass to get_event / compare_coverage.
```
