## Findings

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

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "start_checkout" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":true}; The name "start_checkout" says "start": a word for a change.
```


## Changes things (2)

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

### `recommend_plan`

- 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
Turn a trip into up to three plan recommendations: countries (1-5, any language), number of days and how much data the traveller uses. Each fit carries the full plan facts, the total price for the whole trip and a one-sentence reason built only from catalogue facts. Use this first whenever the user describes a trip rather than asks for a list.
```

### `start_checkout`

- The name "start_checkout" says "start": 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
Hand the customer to the eSIM-Global.VIP shop to buy one plan. Returns buy_url (the product page where they tap Buy now and pay securely — card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, Amazon Pay, Link or a local method such as iDEAL | Wero, Bancontact, BLIK or Pix, with an optional discount code) plus the plan name and price in the customer's bucket or currency. No account needed; the eSIM is emailed right after payment. There is no in-chat order tracking.
```

## Only reads (3)

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

### `get_plan_details`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Full facts for one eSIM-Global.VIP plan by product id: coverage with networks per country, data and speed rules, activation and validity rules, hotspot / APN / registration facts, top-up, refund rule, price with basis, reviews and link — quoted in the customer's bucket or currency when given.
```

### `get_shop_facts`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
How eSIM-Global.VIP works, in the shop's own words: delivery and installation, device requirements, payment methods, money-back guarantee, top-up, hotspot, support and company details. Use for any "how / when / what if" question that is not about one specific plan.
```

### `search_esim_plans`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Find eSIM-Global.VIP eSIM plans for one destination or several (countries or regions, any language). Returns the best-value plans first with full facts, coverage lists and a direct link; multi-country plans that include the destination are returned too and marked covers_via. Use when a user wants mobile data abroad; use recommend_plan when they describe a whole trip.
```
