What verify-event does on Nostr Bray

AI agents call verify-event 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 verify-event is rated Low

Verification is a read-only cryptographic validation operation. It retrieves and validates event data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing external operations. This is a low-risk activity suitable for Read category with low severity since it performs no mutations and has no destructive, financial, or execution implications.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'verify-event' and description 'Verify a Nostr event' indicate a cryptographic verification operation that checks the validity of an existing event without modifying, executing arbitrary code, or causing side effects.

The rule that runs verify-event 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 verify-event, this is the rule to start with:

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "verify-event": {}
  }
}
