## Findings

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

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "get_index_access_options" 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 "get_index_access_options" says "get": a word for reading.
```


## Changes things (1)

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

### `get_index_access_options`

- The name "get_index_access_options" says "get": a word for reading.
- The description's first verb is "call": 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
Call with {} after a free preview to compare paid saved retrieval, unsigned receipts and executable licences. Returns live availability, GBP prices excluding VAT, product requirements and hosted/agent payment contracts, including standalone Tool Admission (GBP49) and Audit Coverage (GBP79). Existing subscriptions exclude all four standalone licences. Use purchase_url for hosted checkout; compatible agents need owner spending authority for the exact quote and must follow agent_payments_contract for payment and recovery. Free evidence needs no payment. Never send keys here; this tool cannot charge or retrieve purchases.
```

## Only reads (3)

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

### `find_evidence_questions`

- The name "find_evidence_questions" says "find": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search existing reviewed evidence questions and fixed-pack topics when you do not know a route ID. Use this for governance, tool permissions, audit/export and evidence-boundary questions. For a known software advisory ID or an exact ecosystem/package lookup, use find_package_advisories instead. Supply query as keywords (maximum 160 characters), or leave it blank to browse. offset is the zero-based pagination offset (default 0, maximum 10000; increase by 20). Returns up to 20 matches with route_id, matched wording and the scoped question; pass a route_id to preview_evidence_answer for the complete free answer and sources. Matching ignores case, punctuation and common question words; it does not validate arbitrary new claims. No match is not a negative verdict. Free and read-only.
```

### `find_package_advisories`

- The name "find_package_advisories" says "find": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Look up a known advisory ID or alias, or an exact ecosystem and package name in the frozen OSV collection. Supply advisory_id OR both ecosystem and package; cursor continues the same lookup. Returns at most 20 concise source matches and route IDs for preview_evidence_answer. Source capture dates and withdrawals are explicit. Full previews include separately dated EPSS/KEV matches and explicit fix boundaries; scores are not asset-risk assessments. No results never mean safe. No range solving, current scanning, independent verification or payment. Free and read-only.
```

### `preview_evidence_answer`

- The name "preview_evidence_answer" says "preview": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Preview a published answer or pack using route_id from find_evidence_questions or find_package_advisories. Free; returns cited evidence, review dates, limitations and snapshot_sha256. Public packs include complete comparisons. Executable-product previews show scope, schemas and examples, not the licensed ZIP; the original integration kit also has a distinct preview_payload_sha256. Optional version checks exact advisory-listed versions only, not ranges or safety. For prices and licences, call get_index_access_options. No paid saving or live testing.
```
