## Exfil surface

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

| Tag | Meaning | Tools |
| --- | --- | --- |
| private-data | Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories. | `mcp__connectors__get_connector` `mcp__connectors__list_connectors` `mcp__connectors__search_connectors` |
| untrusted-input | Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments. | `mcp__connectors__get_connector` `mcp__connectors__get_request` |
| 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 `how_to_add_connector` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "how_to_add_connector" 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 "how_to_add_connector" says "add": a word for a change.
```


## Changes things (1)

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

### `how_to_add_connector`

- The name "how_to_add_connector" says "add": 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
Explains how an app gets into Grok Bot: built-in plugins (Connect apps in the sidebar), custom MCP servers (you ask the Bot in chat to add a URL; must be public HTTPS using streamable HTTP or SSE), and the browser-only route when neither exists. Includes this server's own URL as a worked example. Takes no input and reads nothing from the database.
```

## Only reads (5)

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

### `get_connector`

- The name "get_connector" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "get" and "doc": it reads documents.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "get" and "http": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get the full public record for one published connector by its slug (the last part of https://grokbot.tools/connectors/{slug}): summary, install method with step-by-step instructions and sources, MCP URL (null for built-in plugins), auth type, docs link, Grok Bot test status with the last test date, notes, related wishlist requests, and the page URL. Status is never 'Verified' unless it was verified inside Grok Bot with a dated test. Read-only.
```

### `get_request`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Get one wishlist request by slug (the last part of https://grokbot.tools/requests/{slug}): status, on-site votes, the labeled seed signal, description, public sources (links to the posts it came from), the linked connector if one exists, the builder if it has been claimed, and a matching setup guide when there is one. Slugs of requests that were merged resolve to the surviving request. Read-only.
```

### `list_connectors`

- The name "list_connectors" says "list": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "directory": it reads files.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Page through every published connector in the grokbot.tools directory, alphabetically, with the same optional filters as search_connectors. Returns compact summaries plus the total, the categories in use (first page), and a next_cursor to pass back for the next page. Use this when you want the whole directory; use search_connectors when you know what you are looking for. Read-only.
```

### `list_requests`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List the grokbot.tools wishlist: apps people want connected to Grok Bot, sorted by on-site votes or by newest. Each item has its status (requested, claimed, live), on-site vote count, the labeled seed signal ('X buzz (seed)', mentions elsewhere that are never counted as votes), a linked connector if one exists, and its page URL. Votes are only votes made on grokbot.tools and start at 0. Read-only.
```

### `search_connectors`

- The name "search_connectors" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag private-data: The description's first sentence says "search" and "directory": it reads files.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search the grokbot.tools directory of MCP connectors and plugins for Grok Bot by name, service or category, with optional filters (Grok Bot test status, install method, auth type). Returns compact summaries with the install method, auth type, honest test-status label and the grokbot.tools page URL; use get_connector for install steps and the MCP URL. Only published directory entries are returned. Read-only; independent fan project, not affiliated with xAI.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__connectors__search_connectors",
      "mcp__connectors__get_connector",
      "mcp__connectors__list_connectors",
      "mcp__connectors__list_requests",
      "mcp__connectors__get_request"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__connectors__how_to_add_connector"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__connectors__search_connectors`: private-data
- `mcp__connectors__get_connector`: private-data, untrusted-input
- `mcp__connectors__list_connectors`: private-data
- `mcp__connectors__get_request`: untrusted-input

## Remote posture

| Fact | Observed |

| Reachable | `yes` |
| HTTP status of an anonymous initialize | `200` |
| tools/list served without credentials | `yes` |

- **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://mcp.grokbot.tools/mcp: tools/list returned 6 tools to an anonymous client, including how_to_add_connector (write)
