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 WhatJobs Job Search MCP server can do

The WhatJobs Job Search MCP server is published by mcp.whatjobs.com, a domain the MCP Registry verified. It has 7 tools. Every one of them only reads: going by their definitions, none of them creates, changes, sends or deletes anything.

7 tools bring in text other people can write (search_jobs, get_salary_insights, compare_salaries and 4 more).

The fixed checks matched 1 finding (long-description). Each one comes with the text it matched.

Last scanned Nov 5, 2026, version 2.2.0.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Compare how many jobs are live on WhatJobs right now across places and/or roles. Use this when the user asks where the most jobs are, how much demand there is, or to compare cities or roles, e.g. "Where are the most data analyst jobs in Germany?", "More jobs for nurses or carers in Leeds?", "Paris vs Berlin for developers". Inputs: - keywords: one or more job roles (may be [""] to count all jobs). - locations: one or more places to search, not the user's own location unless they ask about jobs near them. Up to 6 keyword x location combinations are compared. - market: optional. Leave empty to let each location use its own country (so "Paris" and "Berlin" compare France and Germany). Each row includes a link to that search on WhatJobs.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Compare what a job pays across places, or what different jobs pay in one place, from the salaries in current WhatJobs listings: the typical range and median for each, side by side.

Inputs: - keywords: one or more job roles only (e.g. ["nurse"], or ["accountant", "bookkeeper"]). - locations: one or more places to compare (city, region or country), not the user's own location unless they ask about jobs near them. - market: optional. Leave empty to let each location use its own country (so "Paris" and "Berlin" compare France and Germany). Supported values: uk (United Kingdom), us (United States), ca (Canada), de (Germany), in (India), pk (Pakistan), br (Brazil), es (Spain), ae (United Arab Emirates), mx (Mexico), ar (Argentina), za (South Africa), at (Austria), au (Australia), be (Belgium), bh (Bahrain), cl (Chile), co (Colombia), cr (Costa Rica), ch (Switzerland), do (Dominican Republic), dz (Algeria), ng (Nigeria), nl (Netherlands), fr (France). Up to 4 role x place combinations are compared. Each row is in that country's own currency (amounts are not converted between currencies) and says its pay period (per year in most countries). Each row links to that search on WhatJobs.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Show what a job pays, from the salaries in current WhatJobs listings: typical range, median, lowest and highest, plus a few listings with salaries. Use this when the user asks how much a role pays or earns, salary ranges, or whether a salary is good, e.g. "How much does a nurse earn in Paris?" or "Data analyst salary in London". Inputs: - keyword: the job role only (e.g. "nurse", "software engineer"). - location: the place to search (city, region or country), not the user's own location unless they ask for jobs near them. May be empty for the whole country. - market: optional country code; if empty it is inferred from location. Supported values: uk (United Kingdom), us (United States), ca (Canada), de (Germany), in (India), pk (Pakistan), br (Brazil), es (Spain), ae (United Arab Emirates), mx (Mexico), ar (Argentina), za (South Africa), at (Austria), au (Australia), be (Belgium), bh (Bahrain), cl (Chile), co (Colombia), cr (Costa Rica), ch (Switzerland), do (Dominican Republic), dz (Algeria), ng (Nigeria), nl (Netherlands), fr (France). Figures are in the country's own currency, for the pay period most listings use (per year in most countries, per month in some); the result says which. The result includes a link to all matching jobs on WhatJobs.

      What this check looks for
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Search WhatJobs for public job listings using separate structured search fields. Use this tool only when the user is looking for jobs, vacancies, roles, internships, work opportunities, or asks to see more job results. The location is the job search location requested by the user, such as a city, region, country, or remote preference. It is not the user's current physical location unless the user explicitly asks to search near them. Inputs: - keyword: the job role, job function, skill, or industry only. - location: the city, region, country, or remote preference only. - market: optional. The country market for the search. If omitted it is inferred from location (e.g. "Johannesburg, South Africa" -> za). Supported values: uk (United Kingdom), us (United States), ca (Canada), de (Germany), in (India), pk (Pakistan), br (Brazil), es (Spain), ae (United Arab Emirates), mx (Mexico), ar (Argentina), za (South Africa), at (Austria), au (Australia), be (Belgium), bh (Bahrain), cl (Chile), co (Colombia), cr (Costa Rica), ch (Switzerland), do (Dominican Republic), dz (Algeria), ng (Nigeria), nl (Netherlands), fr (France). - chunk_number: the result batch number. Use 1 for the first search and increment when the user asks to see more. Do not include the location inside keyword. Do not include filler words like jobs, vacancies, roles, hiring, in, near, around, at, or within in keyword. Examples: - sales in Bracknell -> keyword="sales", location="Bracknell", market="uk" - software engineer jobs near Manchester -> keyword="software engineer", location="Manchester", market="uk" - driver jobs in Toronto -> keyword="driver", location="Toronto", market="ca" - nurse jobs in Berlin -> keyword="nurse", location="Berlin", market="de" - teacher jobs in Sao Paulo -> keyword="teacher", location="Sao Paulo", market="br" - chef jobs in Madrid -> keyword="chef", location="Madrid", market="es" - accountant jobs in Dubai -> keyword="accountant", location="Dubai, United Arab Emirates", market="ae" - marketing jobs in Mexico City -> keyword="marketing", location="Mexico City, Mexico", market="mx" - developer jobs in Buenos Aires -> keyword="developer", location="Buenos Aires, Argentina", market="ar" - sales jobs in Johannesburg -> keyword="sales", location="Johannesburg, South Africa", market="za" - comptable à Paris -> keyword="comptable", location="Paris", market="fr" - nurse jobs in Sydney -> keyword="nurse", location="Sydney", market="au" - verpleegkundige in Amsterdam -> keyword="verpleegkundige", location="Amsterdam", market="nl" - engineer jobs in Zurich -> keyword="engineer", location="Zürich", market="ch" - marketing jobs in Vienna -> keyword="marketing", location="Wien", market="at" - accountant jobs in Lagos -> keyword="accountant", location="Lagos", market="ng" Returns structured job listings with title, company, location, salary when provided, posted date, summary, description, apply URL and pagination metadata for the WhatJobs widget UI.

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 private-data or outbound.

Reads private data0
Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories.
Reads text others write7
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.
