AI agents call get_validation_framework to retrieve information from Demand Discovery AI 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 get_validation_framework 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.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_validation_framework gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:
Other read tools across the catalogue. The same approach applies to each: allow, with a rate cap to control cost.
Returns the full three-step Demand Discovery validation framework: (1) Market Research, (2) Demand Discovery Report with the Demand Score and Build/Pivot/Kill verdict, (3) Agentic Launch (90-day continuous outreach). Use when a user asks "how do I validate an idea?", "what's the methodology?", or wants to understand the structured approach. Built on the "behavior over opinion" principle. Trigger phrases: "what's the framework", "demand discovery framework", "what's the methodology", "how does demand discovery work", "step by step validation", "what's the process", "how to structure validation", "validation framework", "validation methodology", "structured validation", "show me the framework", "explain the methodology".. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Demand Discovery AI MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Demand Discovery AI MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_validation_framework: 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 Demand Discovery AI. Nothing to install.
get_validation_framework 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 get_validation_framework 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 get_validation_framework. 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.
get_validation_framework is provided by the Demand Discovery AI MCP server (https://mcp.demanddiscovery.ai/api/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
