kfdb_ecosystem_stats

Get aggregate statistics about the ERC-8004 agent ecosystem from KFDB. Returns total agents, feedback entries, accounts, chain breakdowns, and more. Optionally filter by chain_id for chain-specific stats.

Part of the Agent0 MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

AI agents call kfdb_ecosystem_stats to retrieve information from Agent0 without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.

Even though kfdb_ecosystem_stats only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.

Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

What does the kfdb_ecosystem_stats tool do? +

Get aggregate statistics about the ERC-8004 agent ecosystem from KFDB. Returns total agents, feedback entries, accounts, chain breakdowns, and more. Optionally filter by chain_id for chain-specific stats.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Agent0 MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on kfdb_ecosystem_stats? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for kfdb_ecosystem_stats. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Agent0 MCP server.

What risk level is kfdb_ecosystem_stats? +

kfdb_ecosystem_stats is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit kfdb_ecosystem_stats? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the kfdb_ecosystem_stats rule in your Intercept 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 kfdb_ecosystem_stats completely? +

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for kfdb_ecosystem_stats. 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 kfdb_ecosystem_stats? +

kfdb_ecosystem_stats is provided by the Agent0 MCP server (@rickydata/agent0-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
