Anlyon alternative

1 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

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

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Read a Bible passage in one or more editions side by side (Hebrew WLC, Greek Septuagint, SBL Greek NT, English WEB/ASV/Douay-Rheims/Brenton, Russian Synodal, Luther 1912, Louis Segond). Verses are aligned to English numbering even where the Septuagint or Hebrew count differently.

With find: every row in the work (or in one section) containing that text, accent- and breathing-insensitive (e.g. find "αλοω κατα ποντον" or "worse than a brother"), with section and paragraph to read it.

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 outbound.

Reads private data0
Reads files, mail, messages, databases, secrets, calendars or repositories.
Reads text others write1
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.

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

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__scriptura__get_passage",
      "mcp__scriptura__list_editions",
      "mcp__scriptura__who_read_verse",
      "mcp__scriptura__search_shelf",
      "mcp__scriptura__read_work"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__scriptura__room"
    ],
    "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 scriptura. Review it before you use it.
