Anlyon alternative

5 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.

  • create_drawingDraw a picture as a whiteboard animation.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "create_drawing" says "create": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Draw a picture as a whiteboard animation. Spends credits (see quote). Answers at once with the drawing_id; the drawing takes a few minutes, follow it with get_drawing.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: false
    • destructiveHint: false
    • openWorldHint: false
  • create_uploadStart uploading a picture: answers an upload_url to PUT the bytes to, with the given headers.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "create_upload" says "create": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Start uploading a picture: answers an upload_url to PUT the bytes to, with the given headers. Then call create_drawing with the upload_id. Not needed when the host attaches the picture to create_drawing itself.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: false

  • quoteWhat drawing one picture costs, in credits, and the quote_version to pass when creating it.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.
    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

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.

Findings

Matches of fixed checks, with the text they matched.

Claude Code permissions

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

  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__whiteboard-animation__get_drawing",
      "mcp__whiteboard-animation__list_drawings",

    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}

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 whiteboard-animation. Review it before you use it.
