What feeds does on Osint Terminal
AI agents call feeds to retrieve information from Osint Terminal 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
q | string | — |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why feeds is rated Low
Even though feeds only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs feeds safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Osint Terminal, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For feeds, this is the rule to start with:
feeds 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 Osint Terminal, apply this rule, and every feeds call is checked against it from then on.

Register the Osint Terminal MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for feeds: 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 Osint Terminal. Nothing to install.
feeds 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 feeds 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 feeds. 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.
feeds is provided by the Osint Terminal MCP server (https://osint-mcp.thetempleofdoom.com/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
