What check_reputation does on AgentVeil Protocol
AI agents call check_reputation to retrieve information from AgentVeil Protocol without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why check_reputation is rated Low
Despite the empty description, the tool name and context indicate this checks/retrieves reputation data rather than modifying it. No side effects, irreversible actions, code execution, or financial operations are implied. This is a lookup/query operation with minimal blast radius if misused—at worst, an agent might make decisions based on inaccurate reputation data, but cannot modify system state.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'check_reputation' paired with sibling tools 'check_avp_reputation', 'check_trust', and 'get_attestations_received' which are clearly query/retrieval operations.

The rule that runs check_reputation safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and AgentVeil Protocol, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For check_reputation, this is the rule to start with:
check_reputation 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 AgentVeil Protocol, apply this rule, and every check_reputation call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about check_reputation
check_reputation is a read tool on the AgentVeil Protocol MCP server. It is categorised as a Read tool in the AgentVeil Protocol MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the AgentVeil Protocol MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for check_reputation: 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 AgentVeil Protocol. Nothing to install.
check_reputation is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the check_reputation 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for check_reputation. 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.
check_reputation is provided by the AgentVeil Protocol MCP server (agentveil-protocol/agentveil-sdk). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
