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

## Findings

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

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "create_checkout_link" 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 name "create_checkout_link" says "create": a word for a change.
```


## Changes things (1)

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

### `create_checkout_link`

- The name "create_checkout_link" says "create": 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
Return the public course page at https://agenticdesign.school/courses/<slug>, where the buyer completes the purchase. This tool does not create a checkout session, does not create a Stripe customer, and does not look up an account. An optional email is ignored. The response for a slug does not change with other arguments. Prices are US dollars and include GST for Australian customers. Purchases are one-time. Fundamentals is free with an account. The three leadership courses are US$300 once, sold together.
```

## Only reads (2)

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

### `get_course`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Return the public outline and offer for one course slug: audience, outcomes, modules (title, summary, duration, objectives), and the one-time US$ price. Lesson slides are not included. For Australian customers, the US$ price includes GST. Fundamentals is free with an account. Each leadership course is part of the US$300 group. This tool only reads.
```

### `list_courses`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List every Agentic Design School course: title, slug, short description, US$ price (or free with an account), page URL, and image. Prices are one-time and include GST for Australian customers. Paid designer prices come from the cached catalogue. If a live price is unavailable, the price field says to see the course page. This tool only reads.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__courses__list_courses",
      "mcp__courses__get_course"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__courses__create_checkout_link"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__courses__list_courses`: untrusted-input

## Remote posture

What an anonymous client saw at the remote endpoint, last 2026-11-04T02:20:26.070Z, unchanged since 2026-11-04T02:20:26.070Z. 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 | `1` |
| Protocol version | `2025-06-18` |
| WWW-Authenticate on 401 | `not observed` |

| 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` |

- **warn** 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 1 tool that changes things (1 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://agenticdesign.school/mcp: tools/list returned 3 tools to an anonymous client, including create_checkout_link (write)
```
