Anlyon alternative

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.

Tools

Grouped by what each tool does, most consequential first. Open one for its reasons and full description; descriptions are the publisher's own words.

Changes things 3Claude Code: ask
  • create_accountSign up an API for API Meter (free to 250K requests/month).Reads text others writeNo findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "create_account" says "create": a word for a change.

    What it can reach

    • untrusted-inputThe server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Sign up an API for API Meter (free to 250K requests/month). Returns the slug, ingest key, dashboard key and proxy URL. Keys are shown once: store them. Limited to 5 signups per hour per network.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: false
    • destructiveHint: false
    • idempotentHint: false
    • openWorldHint: true
  • export_usageBilling-ready monthly usage rows (same as /api/export): view=detail (customer x plan x method x endpoint) or view=customers.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
    Billing-ready monthly usage rows (same as /api/export): view=detail (customer x plan x method x endpoint) or view=customers. Returns JSON rows, or CSV text with format=csv.

    Annotations the server declares

    • readOnlyHint: true
    • openWorldHint: false
  • get_ingest_snippetCopy-paste server code that reports each request (method, route, status, latency, customer, plan) to API Meter.1 finding

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_ingest_snippet" says "get": a word for reading.
    • The description's first verb is "copy": a word for a change.
    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

    Findings

    • Warn

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

      What this check looks for
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Copy-paste server code that reports each request (method, route, status, latency, customer, plan) to API Meter. Batched, fail-open, never blocks your API.

    Annotations the server declares

  • get_usageMonthly (UTC) usage for one API, grouped by customer, endpoint or plan.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_usage" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Monthly (UTC) usage for one API, grouped by customer, endpoint or plan. Includes an agent bucket: requests whose plan label ends in '-agent' (AI agent / bot traffic, counted and billed like any request).

    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.

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 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.

    What this check looks for

History

Changes to its tool definitions and to its remote endpoint, newest first.

No change seen yet. Its tools are rescanned every day, and a remote endpoint is looked at once a week.

All changes to this server

Install

Pinned to version 1.0.0. Values in angle brackets are yours to fill in.

Run in a terminal.

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__api-meter__get_usage"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__api-meter__create_account",
      "mcp__api-meter__get_ingest_snippet",
      "mcp__api-meter__export_usage"
    ],
    "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 api-meter. Review it before you use it.
