AI agents call aidefense_get_matrix to retrieve information from Website Search 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 aidefense_get_matrix 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.

What does the aidefense_get_matrix tool do? +

Get the structured AI Defense Matrix: 8 AI-specific asset rows x 6 NIST CSF 2.0 function columns. Each cell describes a control category for defending that asset class. Supports optional filtering by asset or function. This server never requests your program docs or product roadmap and instructs your AI to keep them local—the matrix, framework alignments, and playbooks flow to your AI for local analysis.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Website Search MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on aidefense_get_matrix? +

Register the Website Search MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for aidefense_get_matrix: 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 Website Search. Nothing to install.
