get_opening_line is read-only, but an agent in a loop can still rack up calls and cost. PolicyLayer caps every call before it runs. Live in minutes.

AI agents call get_opening_line to retrieve information from Infersports without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.

Even though get_opening_line only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.

Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so get_opening_line only ever does what you allow.

What does the get_opening_line tool do? +

Get the opening odds (初盘) for a fixture, paired with the current price, in ONE call. Resolves the fixture, then for each book returns its true opening (first-seen) quote alongside the current quote — so you can read movement directly. For 1x2 that's a price move; for totals/AH compare line (the opening line) vs current_line to read the line move (the sharp book often opens days earlier). A market with no opening yet on file is omitted. Args: query: natural-language fixture, e.g. "Real Madrid vs Barcelona" or a single team. markets: optional filter — any of "1x2", "asian_handicap", "totals". bookmakers: optional filter — bookmaker keys, e.g. ["pinnacle", "crown"]. period: optional — "full_time" or "half_time" (default: both). format: odds format — decimal | hk | malay | american | indonesian | probability. sport: optional filter — "football" or "basketball". date: optional UTC date "YYYY-MM-DD" to disambiguate same-name fixtures. On an ambiguous query, status is "ambiguous" and ask_user carries a disambiguation prompt — do not assume a match. Best-effort: a book/line with no opening on file is omitted.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Infersports MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on get_opening_line? +

Register the Infersports MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_opening_line: 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 Infersports. Nothing to install.

What risk level is get_opening_line? +

get_opening_line is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit get_opening_line? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_opening_line 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.

How do I block get_opening_line completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_opening_line. 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.

What MCP server provides get_opening_line? +

get_opening_line is provided by the Infersports MCP server (https://api.infersports.dev/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Infersports tool call.
