Anlyon alternative

3 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.

Deletes or cancels 2Claude Code: deny
  • devicemagic_revoke_dispatchWRITE: withdraws one outstanding dispatch from a device (the form disappears from the device).Reads text others writeNo findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "devicemagic_revoke_dispatch" says "revoke": a word for removing or ending something.
    • The description says "cannot be undone".
    • The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

    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
    WRITE: withdraws one outstanding dispatch from a device (the form disappears from the device). It cannot be undone, but the dispatch can be sent again. DELETE /api/v2/devices/{identifier}/dispatches/{id}.json.

    Annotations the server declares

    • title: Revoke a dispatch
    • readOnlyHint: false
    • destructiveHint: true
    • idempotentHint: true
    • openWorldHint: true
  • devicemagic_send_dispatchWRITE: pushes a form, optionally prefilled, to one device where its user will see it (like assigning a job).Reads text others writeCan send data outNo findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "devicemagic_send_dispatch" says "send": a word for sending, and what is sent cannot be taken back.
    • The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).

    What it can reach

    • untrusted-inputThe server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.
    • outboundThe name "devicemagic_send_dispatch" says "send": it sends or publishes something to other people.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    WRITE: pushes a form, optionally prefilled, to one device where its user will see it (like assigning a job). Not idempotent: calling it twice sends two dispatches. Needs the Enterprise plan. The form is named by its namespace (list_forms); `payload` maps question identifiers (get_form) to prefilled values (subforms = nested objects, repeat groups = arrays). POST /api/v2/devices/{identifier}/dispatches.json.

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.

68 paths in this server alone from private data, through text someone else wrote, to a way out. Denying 1 outbound tool breaks every one.

Reads private data4
Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories.
Can send data out1
Can carry data to people or systems: it sends, posts or publishes, or takes a recipient, channel or URL.
deny to break every path
{
  "permissions": {
    "deny": [
      "mcp__device-magic__devicemagic_send_dispatch"
    ]
  }
}

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.
