## Exfil surface

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

| 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__mapposter__create_poster` `mcp__mapposter__search_location` |
| 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 `create_poster` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "create_poster" 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 "create_poster" says "create": a word for a change.
```


## Changes things (1)

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

### `create_poster`

- The name "create_poster" says "create": a word for a change.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Designs a map poster and shows it in the chat. Use this when the user wants a map poster, map print, map wall art or map wallpaper of a real place, or a map poster as an anniversary, Valentine's, wedding, engagement or housewarming gift tied to a place: where a couple met or married, a first home, a hometown, a city someone is leaving, a trip, a marathon someone ran or a birthplace. Not for general gift advice, directions, travel plans, star or night-sky maps, photo posters, 3D, wooden, scratch-off or push-pin maps, or hiking trails and GPX tracks. Takes a city, neighborhood, address, landmark or coordinates (up to three places) and links to the MapPoster editor to fine-tune it or, in the drawn map styles, order it printed. Give a `place` or `lat`/`lon`; the rest is optional. Nothing is saved or bought: the design lives in the link.
```

## Only reads (2)

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

### `list_themes`

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

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Use this when the user wants to see or choose a map poster's style: its colors, a mood (minimalist, black and white, vintage, blueprint, dark, pastel, or pink for a wedding or anniversary) or a theme by name. Lists the MapPoster themes (color styles) with their key colors, whether the PNG download covers them, and which ones are for personal use only. Pass the theme key to create_poster.
```

### `search_location`

- The name "search_location" says "search": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Use this when a map poster needs a place's coordinates, such as the street or venue to mark (where a couple met, a new home), or when the place the user named is ambiguous (several towns share the name) and they should pick one. Finds a city, neighborhood, street address, venue, landmark or coordinates and gives its coordinates and a suggested zoom level; use the result with create_poster. Not for directions, travel times, general map questions or the user's current location.
```

## Claude Code permissions

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

```json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__mapposter__search_location",
      "mcp__mapposter__list_themes"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__mapposter__create_poster"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

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

- `mcp__mapposter__search_location`: untrusted-input
- `mcp__mapposter__create_poster`: untrusted-input

| Fact | Observed |

| HTTP status of an anonymous initialize | `200` |

- **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.mapposter.xyz/mcp: tools/list returned 3 tools to an anonymous client, including create_poster (write)
