**5 tools: 1 do something that can't be undone, 2 change things and 2 only read.**

## Exfil surface

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

| 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__math-board__publish_board` |
| outbound | Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL. | `mcp__math-board__publish_board` |

## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Can't be undone (1)

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

### `publish_board`

- The name "publish_board" says "publish": a word for a change that another call does not undo.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.
- Tag outbound: The name "publish_board" says "publish": it sends or publishes something to other people.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Publishes a board and returns a link that opens it in the user's browser. Call check_board first. A board with errors is not published: the problems come back instead. Give the link to the user exactly as returned.
```

## Changes things (2)

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

### `add_to_board`

- The name "add_to_board" says "add": a word for a change.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Adds board text to the board the teacher has open, behind a live link (.../live/<id>). place "current_page": put it under what is on the page the teacher is on (write ONE page: the next step, a hint, a drawing). place "new_pages": add your pages after the last page (exercises, answers, a new topic). Call check_board first: a text with errors is not added. Nothing on the board is changed or removed; the teacher can undo the addition.
```

### `check_board`

- 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
Checks a board text without publishing it. Returns what the board understood, page by page, and every problem with its line and how to fix it. Fix every ERROR, then call check_board again. When there are no errors, call publish_board.
```

## Only reads (2)

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

### `get_board_format`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Returns the Math Board text format with a complete example. Read it before writing a board, unless you already have it.
```

### `read_board`

- The name "read_board" says "read": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Reads the board behind a Math Board link the user gave you and returns it as board text, in the same format you write. Ink, images, widgets and the audio of narration cannot be written as text and are listed as left out (narration text is kept, as :::say). For a live link it also says which page the teacher is on.
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `math-board`:

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__math-board__get_board_format",
      "mcp__math-board__read_board"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__math-board__check_board",
      "mcp__math-board__publish_board",
      "mcp__math-board__add_to_board"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__math-board__publish_board`: untrusted-input, outbound

## Remote posture

What an anonymous client saw at the remote endpoint, last 2026-10-22T15:14:25.875Z, unchanged since 2026-10-22T15:14:25.875Z. 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 | `3` |
| 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 3 tools that change things (1 irreversible, 2 write). Whether a call also works without credentials was not tested: tools are never called.

https://mathboard.datapad.tools/api/mcp: tools/list returned 5 tools to an anonymous client, including publish_board (irreversible), check_board (write), add_to_board (write)
