WHAT IT DOES

What basic_arithmetic does on Math MCP Server

AI agents invoke basic_arithmetic to trigger actions in Math MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

RISK

Why basic_arithmetic is rated High

The tool name suggests basic mathematical operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division). Given the server context as a math computation server, this likely evaluates arithmetic expressions. With an empty description, confidence is low, but it most plausibly executes computations rather than reading stored data or writing/modifying anything.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'basic_arithmetic'; description is empty or uninformative.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs basic_arithmetic safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Math MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For basic_arithmetic, this is the rule to start with:

basic_arithmetic Rate-limited

basic_arithmetic stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Math MCP Server, apply this rule, and every basic_arithmetic call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about basic_arithmetic

What does the basic_arithmetic tool do? +

basic_arithmetic is a execute tool on the Math MCP Server MCP server. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Math MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on basic_arithmetic? +

Register the Math MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for basic_arithmetic: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Math MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is basic_arithmetic? +

basic_arithmetic is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit basic_arithmetic? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the basic_arithmetic rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block basic_arithmetic completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for basic_arithmetic. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides basic_arithmetic? +

basic_arithmetic is provided by the Math MCP Server MCP server (111-test-111/math-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
