WHAT IT DOES

What adrata_api_catalog does on Starfield

AI agents call adrata_api_catalog to retrieve information from Starfield without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why adrata_api_catalog is rated Low

Even though adrata_api_catalog only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs adrata_api_catalog safely

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

adrata_api_catalog Allowed

adrata_api_catalog is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "adrata_api_catalog": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

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