get_analytics is read-only, but an agent in a loop can still rack up calls and cost. PolicyLayer caps every call before it runs. Live in minutes.

AI agents call get_analytics to retrieve information from Dreamlit 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_analytics 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.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so get_analytics only ever does what you allow.

What does the get_analytics tool do? +

Read-only. Use to query Dreamlit analytics for overview metrics, notification rows, recipient engagement, or workflow run rows with filters, sorting, and cursor pagination. Returns bounded structured analytics data, effective query metadata, pagination details when rows are included, and relevant app URLs. Do not use for CSV exports, bulk dumps, workflow edits, publishing, or low-level database access.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Dreamlit MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on get_analytics? +

Register the Dreamlit MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_analytics: 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 Dreamlit. Nothing to install.

What risk level is get_analytics? +

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

Can I rate-limit get_analytics? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_analytics 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.

How do I block get_analytics completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_analytics. 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 get_analytics? +

get_analytics is provided by the Dreamlit MCP server (https://mcp.dreamlit.ai/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Dreamlit tool call.
