RISK

Why country_by_name is rated Low

This tool retrieves country information from a public API without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. There are no side effects and no blast radius from misuse - at worst, an AI agent could make many requests or retrieve irrelevant data, but no data would be altered or damaged.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get a country by name' which indicates a data retrieval operation with no modification or side effects. The verb 'Get' and the source 'REST Countries' (a public API) confirm this is a simple read/query operation.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs country_by_name safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and UnClick, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For country_by_name, this is the rule to start with:

country_by_name Allowed

country_by_name is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "country_by_name": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect UnClick, apply this rule, and every country_by_name call is checked against it from then on.
