waveguard_phase_coherence

Measure coherence/entropy and collapse-risk indicators for candidate data.

Part of the WaveGuard server.

waveguard_phase_coherence 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 waveguard_phase_coherence to retrieve information from WaveGuard 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 waveguard_phase_coherence 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 waveguard_phase_coherence only ever does what you allow.

What does the waveguard_phase_coherence tool do? +

Measure coherence/entropy and collapse-risk indicators for candidate data.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the WaveGuard MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on waveguard_phase_coherence? +

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

What risk level is waveguard_phase_coherence? +

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

Can I rate-limit waveguard_phase_coherence? +

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

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

waveguard_phase_coherence is provided by the WaveGuard MCP server (https://gpartin--waveguard-api-fastapi-app.modal.run/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every WaveGuard tool call.
