With Anlyon
2 tools here change things. Govern them.
- Anlyon lists the tools and adopts none.
- Each tool you adopt gets approvals and receipts.
- Your agent never holds the key.
A tool your agent calls directly is not routed through Anlyon and is not governed by it. anlyon.dev only lists and labels, and these labels are the same either way.
What the Africa Scam Check MCP server can do
The Africa Scam Check MCP server is published by kwekuanansi.ai, a domain the MCP Registry verified. It has 3 tools. It can create or change data (2 tools: africa_scams.check_message and africa_scams.where_to_report), but cannot delete data. 1 tool only reads.
1 tool reads private data (africa_scams.list_patterns); 1 tool brings in text other people can write (africa_scams.list_patterns).
None of the fixed checks matched anything in its tool definitions. That is not a safety guarantee.
Its remote endpoint lists its tools without sign-in.
Last scanned Nov 11, 2026, version 1.0.0.

Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
Description, as the server wrote it Use this when someone in Kenya or Nigeria shares a text, a WhatsApp message, an email or an account of a phone call about mobile money, a bank, a prize, a job, an investment, a loan or a request for money, and wants to know which known fraud patterns it resembles. It returns the patterns the wording resembles, what the bodies that describe them say to do, and where to report, each with its source. It does not judge the message: say so, and never tell someone a message is fine because nothing matched. Do not use it for other countries, for legal advice, or to decide whether to pay. Leave any PIN, password or one-time code out of what you pass to it.

Description, as the server wrote it Use this when someone in Kenya or Nigeria asks where to report fraud on a phone, a bank account or mobile money, or what the banks and authorities say to do after money or details have gone to a fraudster. It gives the reporting channels the bodies publish and the steps they give, each with its source. Do not use it for other countries or for legal advice, do not suggest that money will be recovered, and leave any PIN, password or one-time code out of what you pass to it.

Why it is in this group
- The name "africa_scams.list_patterns" says "list": a word for reading.
What it can reach
- private-dataThe description's first sentence says "message": it reads messages.
- untrusted-inputThe description's first sentence says "message": it reads messages, which other people can write.
Description, as the server wrote it Use this when someone asks which frauds the banks, mobile networks and public bodies of Kenya or Nigeria have described, or how a named one works (for example a fake reversal instruction, a one-ring call from abroad, or a message about your BVN). Do not use it for other countries, and do not present the list as complete: it covers patterns that were found described on the bodies' own pages. Do not use it to decide whether a message is fine.

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 outbound.
- Reads private data1
- Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories.
- Reads text others write1
- 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.

Allow the reads, ask before a change or a way out, deny the deletes. Paste into .claude/settings.json.

}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 africa-scam-check. Review it before you use it.
