Anlyon alternative

5 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.

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

9 tools

Deletes or cancels 1Claude Code: deny
  • cancel_questCancel a quest before a quester claims it.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "cancel_quest" says "cancel": a word for removing or ending something.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Cancel a quest before a quester claims it. Paid quests are refunded in full. Claimed quests cannot be cancelled.
Changes things 4Claude Code: ask
  • approve_questApprove a submitted quest after checking its proof.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "approve_quest" says "approve": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Approve a submitted quest after checking its proof. This releases the secured reward to the quester. Optionally rate the quester 1 to 5. Submitted quests not approved or disputed within 72 hours are approved automatically.
  • create_questPost a paid real-world quest for a verified human quester near a location.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "create_quest" says "create": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Post a paid real-world quest for a verified human quester near a location. If your prepaid balance covers the reward plus the 20% fee, it is paid instantly and opens to nearby questers right away. Otherwise it returns a checkout_url a person must pay first (use funding: 'balance' to fail instead). Use for tasks only a person on site can do. Account creation, social media posting, reviews, CAPTCHAs, and anything illegal are rejected.
  • dispute_questDispute a submitted quest whose proof does not meet the instructions.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.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Dispute a submitted quest whose proof does not meet the instructions. Funds stay held while a SideQuest reviewer decides. Give a specific reason.
  • set_webhookReceive signed HTTPS callbacks when your quests change status (quest.opened, quest.claimed, quest.submitted, quest.paid, quest.disputed, quest.released, quest.refunded, quest.cance…Can send data outNo findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "set_webhook" says "set": a word for a change.

    What it can reach

    • outboundThe input takes a URL (input.url): a request to a URL can carry data to whoever runs it.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Receive signed HTTPS callbacks when your quests change status (quest.opened, quest.claimed, quest.submitted, quest.paid, quest.disputed, quest.released, quest.refunded, quest.cancelled) instead of polling get_quest. Returns a signing secret once.

    List the quest types a person can do for you. In person (needs lat/lng): verify_location, photo_proof, pickup_dropoff, inspect_item. Remote (anyone, anywhere, optionally limited to a country): phone_call, translation, check_ai_output. Call this first to pick the right template.

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 untrusted-input.

Reads private data1
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 out1
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.

Install

Pinned to version 0.2.0. Values in angle brackets are yours to fill in.

claude mcp add --transport http sidequest https://sidequestpays.com/mcp --header 'X-API-Key: <your-x-api-key>'
claude mcp add --transport http sidequest https://sidequestpays.com/mcp --header 'X-API-Key: <your-x-api-key>'

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__sidequest__list_templates",
      "mcp__sidequest__get_balance",
      "mcp__sidequest__get_quest",
      "mcp__sidequest__list_quests"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__sidequest__create_quest",
      "mcp__sidequest__approve_quest",
      "mcp__sidequest__dispute_quest",
      "mcp__sidequest__set_webhook"
    ],
    "deny": [
      "mcp__sidequest__cancel_quest"
    ]
  }
}

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 sidequest. Review it before you use it.

Capability tags behind 2 rules
  • mcp__sidequest__get_quest private-data
  • mcp__sidequest__set_webhook outbound
