What seed_compositions does on Dual Registry
AI agents call seed_compositions to retrieve information from Dual Registry 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
max_pairs | number | — | Max pairs to seed (default 24) |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why seed_compositions is rated Low
Even though seed_compositions 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 seed_compositions safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Dual Registry, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For seed_compositions, this is the rule to start with:
seed_compositions 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 Dual Registry, apply this rule, and every seed_compositions call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about seed_compositions
Near-zero bootstrap: seed used_with composition edges from Active clean category/tag clusters. Opens composition_density gate without live re-probes. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Dual Registry MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
seed_compositions accepts 1 parameter: max_pairs. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Dual Registry MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for seed_compositions: 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 Dual Registry. Nothing to install.
seed_compositions 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 seed_compositions 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 seed_compositions. 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.
seed_compositions is provided by the Dual Registry MCP server (https://www.dualregistry.dev/api/protocol). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
