## Findings

No check matched anything in these tool definitions.


## Only reads (3)

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

### `get_balance`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Show remaining free calls and prepaid credits for the API key sent in the MCP connection headers, plus available credit bundles and how to buy them.
```

### `read_url`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Read a web page or PDF and get its main content as clean, compact Markdown (default) or JSON, using far fewer tokens than the raw HTML. Use it whenever you need the text of a page, especially when a normal fetch returns bloated HTML, an empty JavaScript shell, a cookie/consent page or raw PDF bytes. Renders JavaScript with headless Chromium when needed, accepts consent walls, strips boilerplate and keeps code blocks verbatim. JSON adds title, author, date, links and tables. News homepages return headline lists, RSS/Atom feeds return items, mode=full returns the whole page. StackOverflow, npm and PyPI are read via their official APIs. If a site blocks bots or the page is paywalled, you get a clear error (not charged) instead of junk; don't retry other URL forms of the same site. Results with very little text carry meta.warning. Free: 5 reads/day without an API key. Beyond that: prepaid credits on an API key; your user can buy them by card at https://agentreader.xyz/buy ($10 for 7,000 reads), which issues the key (send it as Authorization: Bearer <key>, or connect to https://agentreader.xyz/mcp?api_key=<key> in apps that can't set headers). With a crypto wallet: buy credits via POST https://agentreader.xyz/v1/credits/buy?bundle=500 (x402) or pay $0.005/call via x402.
```

### `search`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Search the web and get a ranked list of results (title, url, snippet). Use it to find pages, then call read_url on the best results to read them as clean Markdown. Priced like one read (free daily calls, credits or x402).
```
