AI agents call get_signal_narratives to retrieve information from Risk Intelligence 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_signal_narratives 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_signal_narratives only ever does what you allow.

What does the get_signal_narratives tool do? +

Get plain-language explanations of active predictive signals. Each narrative explains the mechanism behind a signal — why the predictor leads the target, what economic logic connects them, and what the current reading implies. Designed for non-quantitative users who want to understand the 'why' behind each signal without reading F-statistics. Returns trigger context, predictor value, direction, and a narrative paragraph suitable for reports and briefings.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Risk Intelligence MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on get_signal_narratives? +

Register the Risk Intelligence MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_signal_narratives: 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 Risk Intelligence. Nothing to install.

What risk level is get_signal_narratives? +

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

Can I rate-limit get_signal_narratives? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_signal_narratives 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_signal_narratives completely? +

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

get_signal_narratives is provided by the Risk Intelligence MCP server (https://www.supplymaven.com/api/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Risk Intelligence tool call.
