What grammar does on X402 Middleware
AI agents call grammar to retrieve information from X402 Middleware without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
to | string | — | |
desc | string | — | |
text | string | Yes | |
tool | string | — | |
params_desc | string | — |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why grammar is rated Low
Based on the tool name alone, 'grammar' most likely performs grammatical analysis or checking of text, which is a read-only operation that retrieves or queries linguistic properties without side effects. The empty description ({d}) limits confidence slightly, but the name strongly indicates a Read category function.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'grammar' with empty description ({d}) suggests text analysis. No description provided to indicate modification, execution, or financial operations.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs grammar safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and X402 Middleware, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For grammar, this is the rule to start with:
grammar 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 X402 Middleware, apply this rule, and every grammar call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about grammar
{d}. It is categorised as a Read tool in the X402 Middleware MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
grammar accepts 5 parameters: to, desc, text, tool, params_desc. Required: text. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the X402 Middleware MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for grammar: 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 X402 Middleware. Nothing to install.
grammar 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 grammar 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 grammar. 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.
grammar is provided by the X402 Middleware MCP server (@gadgethumans/x402). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
