Why count_australia_working_days is rated Low
Even though count_australia_working_days 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 count_australia_working_days safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Calcgrid, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For count_australia_working_days, this is the rule to start with:
count_australia_working_days is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
