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 "calculate_take_home_pay" says "pay": a word that usually means money moves, which cannot be taken back.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

Description, as the server wrote it Calculates take-home (net) pay for a US employee in any of the 50 states or DC for tax year 2025 or 2026: federal income tax from the IRS Rev. Proc. 2024-40 / 2025-32 bracket tables with the One Big Beautiful Bill Act standard deduction ($15,750 single for 2025, $16,100 for 2026), Social Security with the wage base ($176,100 in 2025, $184,500 in 2026), Medicare plus the 0.9% Additional Medicare tax, and state income tax. State tax is exact from each state's 2026 schedule for CA, NY, NJ, IL, PA, GA, NC; other states return a labeled effective-rate estimate (method: "estimate"). Handles pre-tax 401(k) (not FICA-exempt) and payroll HSA (FICA-exempt), and Pennsylvania/New Jersey rules that tax 401(k) or HSA money. Returns per-period and annual figures. Local taxes (NYC etc.) are out of scope. Figures copied from irs.gov and state revenue sites in Oct 2026.

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.
