What get_client_ip does on Agent Jail
AI agents call get_client_ip to retrieve information from Agent Jail without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why get_client_ip is rated Low
The tool retrieves or queries network/client information (IP address) without altering any state or triggering external operations. This is a read operation. Confidence is moderate (0.75) rather than high because the description is empty and the name alone provides limited context, though the semantics of 'get_' prefix and 'client_ip' strongly suggest a simple information retrieval function.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_client_ip' indicates retrieval of IP address information with no modification of data or side effects.

The rule that runs get_client_ip safely

get_client_ip is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Agent Jail, apply this rule, and every get_client_ip call is checked against it from then on.
