Anlyon alternative
6 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 1Claude Code: deny
delete_linkPermanently deletes one of the user's Snip links and its click history; the short link stops working within a minute and the ending is free again.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "delete_link" says "delete": a word for removing or ending something.
- The description says "Permanently deletes".
- The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).
Description, as the server wrote it Permanently deletes one of the user's Snip links and its click history; the short link stops working within a minute and the ending is free again. Needs the user signed in to Snip. Confirm with the user first; to pause a link instead, use update_link with disabled true.
Annotations the server declares
- title: Delete a link
- readOnlyHint: false
- destructiveHint: true
- idempotentHint: true
- openWorldHint: false
Changes things 5Claude Code: ask
get_account_statsClicks and QR scans across every link in the user's Snip account: totals, by day, the busiest links, and the top countries, referring sites and devices.1 finding
Why it is in this group
- The name "get_account_stats" says "get": a word for reading.
- The description's first verb is "click": a word for a change.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
Findings
- Warn
The server marks "get_account_stats" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

Description, as the server wrote it Clicks and QR scans across every link in the user's Snip account: totals, by day, the busiest links, and the top countries, referring sites and devices. Needs the user signed in to Snip. Use this for questions like "how are my links doing" or "which link got the most scans this week".

get_link_statsClicks and QR scans for one of the user's own Snip links: totals, by day, by hour of the day on plans with time-of-day analytics, and the top countries, referring sites and devices…1 finding
Why it is in this group
- The name "get_link_stats" says "get": a word for reading.
- The description's first verb is "click": a word for a change.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The name "get_link_stats" says "get": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it Clicks and QR scans for one of the user's own Snip links: totals, by day, by hour of the day on plans with time-of-day analytics, and the top countries, referring sites and devices. Needs the user signed in to Snip (the account endpoint or an API key). Pass the short link, its ending or its id. For every link at once, use get_account_stats.
Annotations the server declares

make_qr_codeMake a static QR code for a link, text, Wi-Fi network, contact card, email, phone number or SMS, free and with no account.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.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
Description, as the server wrote it Make a static QR code for a link, text, Wi-Fi network, contact card, email, phone number or SMS, free and with no account. Returns a PNG and an SVG download link that the user can open, save or print; show the PNG link to the user. Static codes hold the content in the pattern, so they never expire and keep working without Snip. Use this whenever the user asks for a QR code.
Annotations the server declares
- title: Make a QR code
- readOnlyHint: true
- destructiveHint: false
- idempotentHint: true
- openWorldHint: false
shorten_linkTurn a long web address into a short snip.link link, free, and get a QR code for it.Reads text others writeCan send data outNo findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "shorten_link" says "link": a word for a change.
What it can reach
- untrusted-inputThe server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.
- 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 Turn a long web address into a short snip.link link, free, and get a QR code for it. Use this when the user wants a short link, a link they can change after printing, or click and scan counts. When the user is not signed in to Snip the link works at once and the answer includes a claim link the user can open to keep it in a free Snip account and see its clicks. When they are signed in (the account endpoint or an API key) the link is saved to their account, and a custom ending (snip.link/your-ending) is allowed.
Annotations the server declares
- title: Shorten a link
- readOnlyHint: false
- destructiveHint: false
- idempotentHint: false
- openWorldHint: true
update_linkChanges where one of the user's Snip links goes, its title, or switches it off and on.Reads text others writeCan send data outNo findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "update_link" says "update": a word for a change.
What it can reach
- untrusted-inputThe server marks it openWorldHint: true: it reaches things outside the server's own data.
- 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 Changes where one of the user's Snip links goes, its title, or switches it off and on. Printed QR codes follow the new destination within a minute. Needs the user signed in to Snip. Pass only the fields to change.

Why it is in this group
- The name "list_domains" says "list": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it The user's own domains (go.yourbrand.com) that their Snip links can use, with whether each is live. Pass a live one as domain to shorten_link. Needs the user signed in to Snip; adding a domain happens in the dashboard (it needs a DNS record).

Why it is in this group

Description, as the server wrote it The user's Snip links, newest first, with their destinations and click counts. Needs the user signed in to Snip. Pass a search to match an ending, a destination or a title.

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 write2
- Brings in text someone else can write: web pages, inbound email, messages, issues and comments.
- Can send data out2
- 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.
