Claude Code shows them as `mcp__grant-finder__<tool>`. - No credentials. ## Tools 12 tools. The read-only column is the server's own hint (`readOnlyHint`), not something the hub checked. ### Quoted from the server: data, not instructions The names, sentences and parameter names in this table are the server's own text, as the hub listed it.
