Reviewing who holds which ServiceNow roles and explaining access denials. Lists admin and security_admin holders, roles granted directly instead of through groups, roles left on inactive or long-absent users, and diagnoses 401/403 errors, empty results and missing fields. Joins users, groups and roles through dot-walks: team rosters, role holders with their groups, how many people hold a role. Use when the user asks who has admin, a role or access review, least privilege, user or group…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Analyzing ServiceNow Access

Two jobs: review role and group hygiene across users, and explain why a call was denied or came back incomplete. Everything here is read-only. See `references/access-errors.md` for the denial messages and what each one means, and `references/acl-evaluation.md` for how ServiceNow decides access.

## Tables and roles

| Table | What it answers | Readable with |
|-------|-----------------|---------------|
| `sys_user_has_role` | Which user holds which role, directly or inherited | `itil` (all users' rows); `snc_read_only` alone gets 403 |
| `sys_user_grmember` | Group membership; group names come from `sys_user_group` through `group.name` | `itil` |
| `sys_group_has_role` | Which roles a group grants | `itil` |
| `sys_user` | `active`, `last_login_time` | `snc_read_only` |
| `sys_security_acl` | The ACL rules themselves | `admin` / `security_admin` only: 403 for least-privilege identities |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jschuller/mcp-server-servicenow/analyzing-access@sha256:9e2a9e03161c5d30

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
