ai_overview_sourcesComputes, on the server, which domains Google cites in the AI Overviews of searches already created (google_search IDs): for each domain, the number of keywords where it is cited, …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.
Description, as the server wrote it
Computes, on the server, which domains Google cites in the AI Overviews of searches already created (google_search IDs): for each domain, the number of keywords where it is cited, the number of mentions, the keywords and its best position on the page. Also returns how many searches have an AI Overview. Free. Best tool to answer "which sites does Google cite in its AI Overviews on these keywords": one small answer instead of every SERP. Based on source URLs, not on brand names.

google_mapsCollects the listings of a Google Maps search for one or more keywords, in the order Google Maps shows them, from a given place.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
Collects the listings of a Google Maps search for one or more keywords, in the order Google Maps shows them, from a given place. Each listing comes with its rank, name (title), CID, category (type), address, website, rating, review count, opening status and the snippet shown. Use it for local SEO, local competition and market research. Paid from the account balance, same price as google_search. Returns rating and review count, not the full text of reviews.

- destructiveHint: false
- idempotentHint: false
- openWorldHint: true

  What this check looks for
Description, as the server wrote it
Collects the real Google results page (SERP) for one or more keywords, rendered in a real browser, and returns every block (organic results, ads, local pack, People Also Ask, AI Overview with its citations and sources...) with, for each item, its rank in its block (rank_type), its rank on the page (rank_serp), its Google page and its pixel position. Use it to know what Google actually shows for a query, in a given country, language, city and device. Paid from the account balance: about EUR 0.0003 per keyword for the first page, EUR 0.0002 per extra page. Takes about 30 seconds per keyword (about a minute for 10 pages); the tool waits for the results. Returns titles, snippets and URLs, not the full content of the pages.

Why it is in this group
- The name "get_balance" says "get": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it
Returns the balance of the Semscraper account, in euros. Free.
Annotations the server declares
- readOnlyHint: true

get_queue_statusReturns how many searches of the account are pending, processing or done.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "get_queue_status" says "get": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it
Returns how many searches of the account are pending, processing or done. Free. The account has its own queue: the robots serve accounts in turn, so a large batch flows through gradually.
Annotations the server declares
- readOnlyHint: true
- openWorldHint: false
get_serp_resultsReturns searches already created (google_search or google_maps), by their IDs (serp_...), e.g.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "get_serp_results" says "get": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it
Returns searches already created (google_search or google_maps), by their IDs (serp_...), e.g. the pending_ids of a previous call. Free: the searches were paid when created.
Annotations the server declares
- readOnlyHint: true
- openWorldHint: false
list_google_versionsLists the supported Google versions as location / language pairs (186 Google domains, 117 languages), to pick valid location and language values.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "list_google_versions" says "list": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it
Lists the supported Google versions as location / language pairs (186 Google domains, 117 languages), to pick valid location and language values. Free. Filter with a country domain, a code or a language name to keep the answer short.
Annotations the server declares
- readOnlyHint: true
- openWorldHint: false

Why it is in this group
- The name "list_searches" says "list": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it
Lists the searches of the account, most recent first (ID, engine, keyword, device, location, language, depth, geolocation, status, whether the results were already fetched, cost, creation date), without their results. Free. Covers every search made with the account, through this server or the API. Use it to find IDs (e.g. "the last 10 searches", "today's searches"), and whenever a google_search or google_maps call failed, timed out or lost its answer: the searches were probably created and paid already, so fetch them with get_serp_results instead of searching again.
Annotations the server declares
- readOnlyHint: true
- openWorldHint: false

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.

3 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.
