What get_network_stats does on Crypto Intelligence
AI agents call get_network_stats to retrieve information from Crypto Intelligence 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
coin | string | — | Blockchain network: TAO, KAS, ALGO, XLM, QUBIC |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why get_network_stats is rated Low
This tool queries blockchain state information with no side effects, no code execution, and no financial transactions. The $0.01 cost is a micropayment for API access, not a financial commitment from the tool itself. Network stats are public data that cannot be modified or deleted by querying them.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it retrieves blockchain network statistics (hashrate, blocks, peers, sync status) with no modification or execution capability. The verb 'Get' and the read-only nature of network metrics confirm this is a data retrieval operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs get_network_stats safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Crypto Intelligence, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_network_stats, this is the rule to start with:
get_network_stats 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 Crypto Intelligence, apply this rule, and every get_network_stats call is checked against it from then on.

Get blockchain network stats — hashrate, blocks, peers, sync status. Coins: TAO, KAS, ALGO, XLM, QUBIC. $0.01. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Crypto Intelligence MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
get_network_stats accepts 1 parameter: coin. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Crypto Intelligence MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_network_stats: 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 Crypto Intelligence. Nothing to install.
get_network_stats 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 get_network_stats 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 get_network_stats. 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.
get_network_stats is provided by the Crypto Intelligence MCP server (https://api.carbon-cashmere.de/mcp/sse). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
