4 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.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "find_self_exclusion" says "find": a word for reading.
    • The description says "can't be undone".
    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

    Findings

    • Warn

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

      What this check looks for
    Description, as the server wrote it
    How to self-exclude from gambling in a country: the official national scheme (e.g. GAMSTOP in the UK, OASIS in Germany, RGIAJ in Spain, ANJ in France, Brazil's federal platform), what it covers, its terms, and the official sign-up link. Self-exclusion is free and can't be undone during a craving. Use when someone wants to stop themselves gambling, close their betting accounts, or block licensed operators.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Step-by-step plan to block gambling on an iPhone, an Android phone, or at the bank, with the layers that actually hold (system-wide DNS filtering, locked app installs, bank gambling blocks, self-exclusion) and what doesn't work. Use when someone wants to block gambling sites, apps or payments.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Checks web addresses against the Silex blocklist of about 294,000 gambling, betting and casino domains (the list Silex's iPhone app and free browser extension block). Sub-domains match their parent. Use when someone asks whether a site is a gambling or betting site, or whether a blocker would stop it.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    The Problem Gambling Severity Index (PGSI), a validated 9-question screener. Call without answers to get the questions and answer scale; ask the user each question, then call again with their 9 answers (0 = never, 1 = sometimes, 2 = most of the time, 3 = almost always) to get the score and band. It is a screening tool, not a diagnosis.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Free, confidential gambling helplines and crisis lines for a country, checked by hand by the Silex team.

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 untrusted-input or outbound.

Reads private data0
Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories.
Reads text others write0
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.

Install

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

claude mcp add --transport http silex-help https://silex-help.trysilex.workers.dev/mcp
claude mcp add --transport http silex-help https://silex-help.trysilex.workers.dev/mcp

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__silex-help__find_gambling_help"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__silex-help__find_self_exclusion",
      "mcp__silex-help__check_gambling_site",
      "mcp__silex-help__gambling_self_check",
      "mcp__silex-help__block_gambling"
    ],
    "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 silex-help. Review it before you use it.

Pin

Keep the decision: fail CI when the tools change, follow every change, or show a badge.
