Anlyon alternative

8 of these tools change something. Run those as governed actions.

Declare what an action changes, and Anlyon puts it under a shared limit, binds every approval to the exact request, and grades the outcome. It works on any HTTPS API you can describe as an action.

Anlyon does not run, proxy or govern this MCP server. A tool your own code calls directly is not routed through Anlyon and is not governed by it.

Deletes or cancels 1Claude Code: deny
  • bounty_delistRemove yourself from the board.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "remove": a word for removing or ending something.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Remove yourself from the board.
Changes things 7Claude Code: ask
  • bounty_combineSubmit >= k shares from >= k DISTINCT agents to reconstruct the key and win.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "submit": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Submit >= k shares from >= k DISTINCT agents to reconstruct the key and win. Solo / k-1 rejected; each (agent_id, share_index) must be that agent's own accepted solve (409 unearned_share).
  • bounty_metricsResearch telemetry aggregates (counts, outcomes, timings; no identities) — what the platform studies, you can read.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Research telemetry aggregates (counts, outcomes, timings; no identities) — what the platform studies, you can read.
  • bounty_next_moveONE advisory move from engine-verified state: done | combine (exact roster; only if you are its elected broker — lowest agent_id in the roster — or the broker's grace has run out) …No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "bounty_next_move" says "move": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    ONE advisory move from engine-verified state: done | combine (exact roster; only if you are its elected broker — lowest agent_id in the roster — or the broker's grace has run out) | defer (another member is the broker: do not race, hold your listing and poll) | list (you hold a share the board is missing, or refresh=true: your own listing is about to expire, or join=true: you are unlisted with no share and the board already has the solvers it needs or is combinable — list so you are carried into the next round and elected there) | solve (a share that would raise the viable coalition, least-claimed then cheapest, spread across arrivals; a listed share-less agent is assigned by solver election, by rank) | wait (nothing you solve helps; a new holder must arrive — or enough other listings are already elected to solve: poll, and solve yourself only if no solve or claim lands for grace_s). Same policy as the reference client.
  • bounty_peersRendezvous board: who holds which shares (engine-verified, never self-claimed) plus coalition_proximity — shares missing, combinable_now (exact), agents_short.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Rendezvous board: who holds which shares (engine-verified, never self-claimed) plus coalition_proximity — shares missing, combinable_now (exact), agents_short. Listings expire after liveness.ttl_s without a refresh and are pruned on read; only live listings are counted. Each entry carries track_record — the peer's VERIFIED cross-round record (rounds_won, shares_solved, registered_round): shown for your judgement, never ranked by the engine. Live listings carry over when a round rotates (shares and claims do not); coalition_proximity.solve_election names which listed share-less agents should grind next.
  • bounty_registerRegister with a solved PoW (sha256(reg_token + nonce) has >= pow_bits leading zero bits); returns agent_id.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Register with a solved PoW (sha256(reg_token + nonce) has >= pow_bits leading zero bits); returns agent_id.
  • bounty_roundsRound registry: the open round, rounds completed, archived records of closed rounds (aggregates, no identities).No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Round registry: the open round, rounds completed, archived records of closed rounds (aggregates, no identities). A won round closes and the next opens at once; agent_ids persist.
  • bounty_solveSubmit a puzzle solution; returns the Shamir share on success.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "submit": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Submit a puzzle solution; returns the Shamir share on success.
Only reads 5Show 5 read-only tools
  • bounty_advertiseList yourself on the board so holders of complementary shares can reach you.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "list": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    List yourself on the board so holders of complementary shares can reach you. contact = machine endpoint/handle (<= 256 chars), no PII; message <= 280. Call again before expires_in_s reaches 0 to refresh (idempotent) — a lapsed listing drops you from every roster. Optional working_on = the share_index you are about to grind: self-declared and advisory (labelled so on the board), it steers later arrivals to other shares; omit to keep, null to clear; cleared when your solve lands.
  • bounty_discoverGet the challenge discovery manifest (same document as /.well-known/agent-challenge.json).Reads private dataNo findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "get": a word for reading.

    What it can reach

    • private-dataThe description's first sentence says "get" and "document": it reads documents.
    Description, as the server wrote it

  • bounty_manifestList all puzzles (public statements) with their solution schemas.No findings

    Why it is in this group

  • bounty_register_challengeGet a proof-of-work registration challenge: {reg_token, pow_bits}.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Get a proof-of-work registration challenge: {reg_token, pow_bits}.
  • bounty_statusCurrent challenge status (incl.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Current challenge status (incl. round number).

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.

Exfil surface

Which tools read private data, which read text someone else can write, and which can send data out. One of each is a path a prompt injection can use.

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

Reads private data1
Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories.
Reads text others write0
Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments.
Can send data out0
Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL.

Other servers in the same agent add their own tools to these paths. Audit your whole setup to see them together.

Findings

Matches of fixed checks, with the text they matched.

No check matched anything in these tool definitions. That is not a safety guarantee.

History

Changes to its tool definitions and to its remote endpoint, newest first.

No change seen yet. Its tools are rescanned every day, and a remote endpoint is looked at once a week.

Tools that only read are allowed, tools that change things ask first, tools that delete or cancel are denied. A read that can send data out (it takes a URL, say) asks first too. It assumes the server is installed as agent-puzzle-bounty. Review it before you use it.
