What encode-note does on Nostr Bray

AI agents call encode-note to retrieve information from Nostr Bray without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why encode-note is rated Low

This tool performs a stateless encoding function converting hex to bech32 format, a common operation in Nostr protocol implementations. It has no side effects, does not access external state beyond its input parameter, and cannot be misused to cause harm regardless of the argument provided. The output is purely derived from the input without affecting any data store or triggering external actions.

From the tool's definition Tool description states "Encode a hex event ID as a bech32 note" — this is a data transformation/encoding operation that converts one format to another without modifying, creating, deleting, or executing anything.

The rule that runs encode-note safely

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

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "encode-note": {}
  }
}
