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.

Changes things 5Claude Code: ask
  • authSign in to b59.link to raise the rate limit from 2 to 300 requests/minute and own what you create.Reads text others writeNo findings

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.

    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
    Sign in to b59.link to raise the rate limit from 2 to 300 requests/minute and own what you create. Pass api_key to get a session key straight away. Or pass email to have a 6-digit code emailed, then call again with email and otp to get a session key (new emails are signed up and also get their api_key). Send the session key as the HTTP header 'Authorization: Bearer <session_key>'.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "create_tracker" says "create": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Create a free page-view tracker for a website. Returns the tag image URL and ready-to-paste snippets for the site's pages, plus the stats URL where views, visitors, pages and referrers are shown. When signed in, the tracker belongs to the account; otherwise keep the manage_token to claim it later.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "generate_qr" says "generate": 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
    Generate a trackable QR code for a URL. Creates a b59.link short URL at the same time so scans are counted. Returns the short URL, a stats URL, and the QR code as a base64-encoded PNG.

    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Make a QR code image for any text (URL, Wi-Fi string, phone, email, plain text) without creating a short link. Supports colors, size and SVG. Returns the image plus a permanent image URL that can be embedded with <img src>. Use generate_qr instead when scans should be counted.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Get the stats page URL for anything b59.link tracks: a slug or short URL, the destination URL of a short link or QR code, a tracker id or tag URL, or any page URL / domain that has a tracker tag. Stats themselves are viewed on b59.link; this returns where.

    Claude Code: ask, because it is tagged outbound.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Check whether a URL already has a b59.link short URL. Handles variations: http/https, www prefix, trailing slash. Returns the existing short URL and QR code if found.

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.

Reads private data0
Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories.
Reads text others write3
Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments.
Can send data out3
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 1.2.0. Values in angle brackets are yours to fill in.

claude mcp add --transport http b59-link https://b59.link/api/mcp
claude mcp add --transport http b59-link https://b59.link/api/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__b59-link__get_stats_url"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__b59-link__auth",
      "mcp__b59-link__shorten_url",
      "mcp__b59-link__generate_qr",
      "mcp__b59-link__create_tracker",

      "mcp__b59-link__make_qr_image"
    ],
    "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 b59-link. Review it before you use it.

Capability tags behind 5 rules

Pin

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