build_golf_tripAFTER find_nearby_courses, pass its center latitude/longitude, access and holes preferences, and number_of_courses to make a 1-4 course shortlist.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
AFTER find_nearby_courses, pass its center latitude/longitude, access and holes preferences, and number_of_courses to make a 1-4 course shortlist. You can also start directly with a plain-language location (place, station, address, or US ZIP). Optional tee yardage and slope ranges rank matching tees by fit plus straight-line distance; without tee preferences, courses are nearest-first and missing scorecards are retained. Returns ranked course picks with canonical Stymie URLs, reusable slugs, selection reasons, distance, access, holes, and published tee data when available. Public access excludes unknown/private courses; private picks require the golfer to confirm access. No booking, tee-time availability, transit routing, or drive times are provided. Use returned URLs as citations without inventing slugs.

- The description's first verb is "start": a word for a change.

  What this check looks for
Description, as the server wrote it
START HERE to plan golf near a place, transit station, address, or US ZIP: pass the place text as location, plus access (public/private/all) and holes (9/18) if known. Coordinates are optional; no slug knowledge is needed. Resolves the location and returns its labeled center and a nearest-first ranked shortlist with canonical Stymie URLs, reusable slugs, straight-line miles, access, holes, and scorecard availability. If the place is ambiguous, ask the golfer to choose a candidate. NEXT call build_golf_trip with the returned latitude/longitude and the same preferences for 1-4 course picks. Use search_courses only for a specific course name. Copy returned URLs verbatim; distances are not drive/transit times.

Description, as the server wrote it
Rank courses in a state using published tee data: hardest uses highest slope, easiest uses lowest slope among public/municipal courses, and longest uses maximum yardage.

Why it is in this group
- The name "search_courses" says "search": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it
Search for a named course or filter the directory by city/state, access, and holes. For a trip near a place, station, address, or ZIP, call find_nearby_courses FIRST; do not put the place name in query (query searches course names). You may also pass location here for a proximity search. Returns canonical Stymie URLs, reusable slugs, access, holes, scorecard availability, and straight-line miles when a location is supplied. Copy returned URLs; never construct county slugs. Next: get_course with a returned URL, or build_golf_trip with the resolved center and preferences.

- idempotentHint: true

Returns its Stymie course-page link, where the golfer can find the official website or phone, plus an optional early-access alerts page.

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.

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.
