Why it is in this group
- The name "sacs_get_csam_related" says "get": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it
Retrieve related CSAM 2024 sections/content using its source-evidenced knowledge graph. Start with a procedure number, a chunk_id from sacs_search_csam, a returned node_id, or short heading/code/glossary keywords (exactly one selector). Defaults to explicit references in both directions. Choose relations contains/in_procedure for hierarchy, defines/mentions for code or glossary connections, within_range for numeric code membership, or next for source adjacency; depth 1–2. Every result explains its evidence path and returns at most one cited text/Markdown chunk; representative content is partial. Query node_id=csam:2024:manual with relations=[contains] to browse structure. Use include_content=false for topology-only pages. No database/model calls or paid entitlement required.

Anlyon alternative

4 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.
