2 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.

query_docs_filesystem_mintlifyRun a read-only shell-like query against a virtualized, in-memory filesystem rooted at `/` that contains ONLY the Mintlify documentation pages and OpenAPI specs.Reads private data2 findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "query_docs_filesystem_mintlify" says "query": a word for reading.
- The description's first verb is "run": a word for a change.
- The input takes a statement or command to run (input.command), which can change anything it can reach.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
What it can reach
- private-dataThe name "query_docs_filesystem_mintlify" says "query" and "doc": it reads documents.

Description, as the server wrote it Run a read-only shell-like query against a virtualized, in-memory filesystem rooted at `/` that contains ONLY the Mintlify documentation pages and OpenAPI specs. This is NOT a shell on any real machine — nothing runs on the user's computer, the server host, or any network. The filesystem is a sandbox backed by documentation chunks. This is how you read documentation pages: there is no separate "get page" tool. To read a page, pass its `.mdx` path to `head` or `cat` — a page at the URL path `/some/page` lives at `/some/page.mdx`. To search the docs with exact keyword or regex matches, use `rg`. To understand the docs structure, use `tree` or `ls`. **Paths are specific to this site — never guess them.** Discover real paths with `tree / -L 2`, `ls /`, or the search tool before reading. If a path does not exist, that only means the guess was wrong; it does NOT mean the topic is undocumented — use `rg -il "keyword" /` to find where it is covered. **Workflow:** Start with the search tool for broad or conceptual queries like "how to authenticate" or "rate limiting". Use this tool when you need exact keyword/regex matching, structural exploration, or to read the full content of a specific page by path. Supported commands: rg (ripgrep), grep, find, tree, ls, cat, head, tail, stat, wc, sort, uniq, cut, sed, awk, jq, plus basic text utilities. No writes, no network, no process control. Run `--help` on any command for usage. Each call is STATELESS: the working directory always resets to `/` and no shell variables, aliases, or history carry over between calls. If you need to operate in a subdirectory, chain commands in one call with `&&` or pass absolute paths (e.g., `cd /some-directory && ls` or `ls /some-directory`). Do NOT assume that `cd` in one call affects the next call. Examples (replace the placeholder paths with real ones from `tree` or search): - `tree / -L 2` — see the top-level directory layout - `rg -il "rate limit" /` — find all files mentioning "rate limit" - `rg -C 3 "apiKey" /some-directory/` — show matches with 3 lines of context around each hit - `head -80 /some/page.mdx` — read the top 80 lines of a specific page - `head -80 /page-one.mdx /page-two.mdx /section/page-three.mdx` — read multiple pages in one call - `cat /some/page.mdx` — read a full page when you need everything - `cat /openapi/zh/analytics.openapi.json | jq '.paths | keys'` — list OpenAPI endpoints OpenAPI specs for this site are mounted at: `/openapi/zh/analytics.openapi.json`, `/openapi/fr/analytics.openapi.json`, `/openapi/es/analytics.openapi.json`, `/openapi/analytics.openapi.json`, `/openapi/zh/openapi.json`, `/openapi/fr/openapi.json`, `/openapi/es/openapi.json`, `/openapi/openapi.json`, `/openapi/zh/discovery-openapi.json`, `/openapi/fr/discovery-openapi.json`, `/openapi/es/discovery-openapi.json`, `/openapi/discovery-openapi.json`, `/openapi/zh/static-export-openapi.json`, `/openapi/fr/static-export-openapi.json`, `/openapi/es/static-export-openapi.json`, `/openapi/static-export-openapi.json`, `/openapi/zh/admin-openapi.json`, `/openapi/fr/admin-openapi.json`, `/openapi/es/admin-openapi.json`, `/openapi/admin-openapi.json`. Use them to answer questions about endpoints, request/response schemas, parameters, and authentication. Output is truncated to 30KB per call. Prefer targeted `rg -C` or `head -N` over broad `cat` on large files. To read only the relevant sections of a large file, use `rg -C 3 "pattern" /path/file.mdx`. Batch multiple file reads into a single `head` or `cat` call whenever possible. When referencing pages in your response to the user, convert filesystem paths to URL paths by removing the `.mdx` extension. For example, `/some/page.mdx` becomes `/some/page`.

Use when a documentation page is incorrect, outdated, confusing, incomplete, or has a broken example. This is for feedback about the documentation content itself — not for product support requests or feedback about this tool or assistant.

Description, as the server wrote it Search across the Mintlify knowledge base to find relevant information, code examples, API references, and guides. Use this tool when you need to answer questions about Mintlify, find specific documentation, understand how features work, or locate implementation details. The search returns contextual content with titles and direct links to the documentation pages. If you need the full content of a specific page, use the query_docs_filesystem tool to `head` or `cat` the page path (append `.mdx` to the path returned from search — e.g. a result at `/some/page` is read with `head -200 /some/page.mdx`).

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.
