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.

  • exec_commandRun a shell command on ops-console-01 as svc-ops.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "exec_command" says "exec": 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 destructive (destructiveHint: true).
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Run a shell command on ops-console-01 as svc-ops. Admin only.

    Annotations the server declares

    • destructiveHint: true
  • rotate_keysRotate a production service's credentials.1 finding

    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 destructive (destructiveHint: true).

    Findings

    • Info

      The description mentions "credentials".

      Matched text

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "fetch_url" says "fetch": a word for reading.
    • The server marks it as not read-only (readOnlyHint: false).

    What it can reach

    • untrusted-inputThe server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.
    • untrusted-inputThe name "fetch_url" says "fetch" and "url": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
    • untrusted-inputThe description's first sentence says "fetch" and "url": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
    • untrusted-inputThe input takes a URL (input.url), and the tool reads it: it reads web pages, which anyone can write.
    • outboundThe input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.

    Findings

    • Warn

      The server marks "fetch_url" as not read-only (readOnlyHint: false), and its words say it reads.

      Matched text

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "run_sql" says "run": a word for a change.
    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

    • Warn

      The server marks "run_sql" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

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.

8 paths in this server alone from private data, through text someone else wrote, to a way out. Denying 1 outbound tool breaks every one.

Reads private data4
Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories.
Reads text others write2
Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments.
Can send data out1
Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL.
deny to break every path
{
  "permissions": {
    "deny": [
      "mcp__honeypot__fetch_url"
    ]
  }
}

Other servers in the same agent add their own tools to these paths. Audit your whole setup to see them together.

Claude Code permissions

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

.claude/settings.json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__honeypot__whoami",
      "mcp__honeypot__list_services",

    "deny": [
      "mcp__honeypot__exec_command",
      "mcp__honeypot__rotate_keys"
    ]
  }
}

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 honeypot. Review it before you use it.
