nausika_get_routes

Look up your saved sailing-route library: direct fetch by id, or paginated search by name fragment via query, with limit and offset for pagination. Examples: - List all (defaults limit=20, offset=0): (no params) - Detail by id: id="a1b2c3d4" (8-char short-id or full UUID) - Search: query="Corsica...

nausika_get_routes 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 nausika_get_routes to retrieve information from Nausika 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 nausika_get_routes 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 nausika_get_routes only ever does what you allow.

What does the nausika_get_routes tool do? +

Look up your saved sailing-route library: direct fetch by id, or paginated search by name fragment via query, with limit and offset for pagination. Examples: - List all (defaults limit=20, offset=0): (no params) - Detail by id: id="a1b2c3d4" (8-char short-id or full UUID) - Search: query="Corsica", limit=10, offset=0 - Only itineraries: route_type="itinerary" Tip: feed leg coordinates into nausika_marine_forecast or nausika_tides to check conditions along the route.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Nausika MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on nausika_get_routes? +

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

What risk level is nausika_get_routes? +

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

Can I rate-limit nausika_get_routes? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the nausika_get_routes 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 nausika_get_routes completely? +

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

nausika_get_routes is provided by the Nausika MCP server (https://mcp.nausika.app). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Nausika tool call.
