What prime_factors does on Gateway
AI agents call prime_factors to retrieve information from Gateway 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
n | integer | Yes | Integer to factor (2 .. 10^15) |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why prime_factors is rated Low
Prime factorization and related number-theoretic functions are computationally intensive reads that retrieve mathematical properties of integers. The tool accepts an integer argument and returns calculated results without modifying any data, executing code, deleting information, or moving money. No irreversibility or external system interactions are implied.
From the tool's definition Tool performs pure mathematical computations: 'Prime factorization, primality, divisor count/sum and Euler totient of an integer.' These are deterministic read-only calculations with no data mutation, external side effects, or state changes.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs prime_factors safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Gateway, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For prime_factors, this is the rule to start with:
prime_factors 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 Gateway, apply this rule, and every prime_factors call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about prime_factors
Prime Factorization — Prime factorization, primality, divisor count/sum and Euler totient of an integer. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Gateway MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
prime_factors accepts 1 parameter: n. Required: n. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Gateway MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for prime_factors: 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 Gateway. Nothing to install.
prime_factors 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 prime_factors 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 prime_factors. 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.
prime_factors is provided by the Gateway MCP server (https://wingmanprotocol.com/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
