Anlyon alternative

Run the operations that matter 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.

  • ioda_find_outagesFind IODA outage events overlapping an explicit Unix-second window of at most 31 days.Reads text others writeNo findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "ioda_find_outages" says "find": a word for reading.

    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
    Find IODA outage events overlapping an explicit Unix-second window of at most 31 days. Omit entity filters for global scope, which searches one day outside the window by default instead of 14; global searches over multi-day windows can time out, so narrow the window or add entityType. A code requires its entityType. relatedToType and relatedToCode limit results to entityType entities within one country, region, ASN, or geoasn. Source scores are not an absolute severity scale. Starts at until are included; adjacent windows can duplicate boundary detections. Starts may precede from; ends can be clipped at until and do not establish recovery. ignoreMethods excludes source.method, source.*, or *.method upstream before scoring. includeAlerts adds nested transitions and can increase size. Pages are zero-based; keep filters and limit fixed.

    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
    Retrieve IODA detection and recovery transitions in an explicit Unix-second window of at most 31 days. Omit entity filters for global scope; a code requires entityType. relatedToType and relatedToCode limit results to entityType entities within one country, region, ASN, or geoasn, served at page 0 only. Each transition retains its source, level, condition, value and baseline; levels and baselines are not a source-independent severity scale. Transitions include both requested bounds, widened by extendWindowSeconds; adjacent windows can duplicate boundary detections. ignoreMethods excludes source.method, source.*, or *.method upstream. Missing transitions do not establish health. Pages are zero-based; keep filters and limit fixed.

    • The name "ioda_get_signals" says "get": a word for reading.

    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
    Fetch numeric BGP visibility, active IPv4 /24 probing, or Merit telescope series for one entity in an explicit Unix-second window of at most 31 days. source is required: bgp, ping-slash24, or merit-nt. Nulls are missing observations, not zero connectivity. maxPoints requests upstream aggregation, not first-N samples; smaller values lose temporal resolution. Returned series retain aligned boundary buckets with exclusive returned until bounds that may extend beyond requested bounds; timestamps and intervals support cross-source comparisons.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "ioda_get_status" says "get": a word for reading.

    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
    Inspect recent IODA detection evidence and measurement coverage for one entity over a lookback of 1–24 hours. Collect events, alerts, bgp, ping-slash24 and merit-nt evidence. Partial failures remain explicit and route to standalone tools. recent, stale, no_data and unknown describe observation availability; buckets within the 1800-second publication allowance count as pending, not missing. No alerts is not an all-clear. IODA measures macroscopic connectivity, not one office or a shutdown cause.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "ioda_search_entities" says "search": a word for reading.

    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
    Resolve country, region, autonomous-system, or geoasn (one ASN within a region or country) names and codes for outage investigations. Choose entityType and either query or entityCode; omit both to list the type. Countries use two letters, regions numeric IODA codes, ASNs decimal digits (AS prefix accepted), geoasns an ASN and a region or country code (40934-576, 59962-IR). Add relatedToType and relatedToCode to list entityType entities within one country, region, ASN, or geoasn, such as the regions or networks of a country; a scope combines with query. Metadata does not establish measurement coverage. Pages are zero-based; keep limit fixed when continuing.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "ioda_summarize_outages" says "summarize": a word for reading.

    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
    Rank the entities of one entityType by IODA's outage summary score over an explicit Unix-second window of at most 31 days, such as the countries or a country's regions hit hardest this week. Rows keep IODA's order, descending scores.overall. IODA merges overlapping events from different sources, scores each merged event as the product of its sources' scores, and sums the merged events into overall; each <source>.<method> key sums that source's event scores. Scores are window totals for ranking the rows of one request, not current status, and are not comparable across requests with different windows. Add entityCode for one entity, or relatedToType and relatedToCode to rank entityType entities within one country, region, ASN, or geoasn; large type-only rankings can time out. Event-start selection includes until, so adjacent windows can duplicate boundary detections. ignoreMethods excludes source.method, source.*, or *.method upstream before scoring; keep exclusions fixed when comparing rankings or drilling into events and alerts. An empty result is not an all-clear. Pages are zero-based; keep filters and limit fixed.

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 write6
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.

No check matched anything in these tool definitions. That is not a safety guarantee.

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.

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 ioda-outages. Review it before you use it.
