factorguide_synergy_detect 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 factorguide_synergy_detect to retrieve information from FactorGuide 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 factorguide_synergy_detect 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.

What does the factorguide_synergy_detect tool do? +

Detect hidden synergistic structure via Walsh-Hadamard spectral analysis. Accepts pre-computed Walsh coefficients — agent performs the transform locally and sends only the spectral summary. Specification pending — v1.1 target.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the FactorGuide MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on factorguide_synergy_detect? +

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

What risk level is factorguide_synergy_detect? +

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

Can I rate-limit factorguide_synergy_detect? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the factorguide_synergy_detect 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 factorguide_synergy_detect completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for factorguide_synergy_detect. 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 factorguide_synergy_detect? +

factorguide_synergy_detect is provided by the FactorGuide MCP server (https://factorguide.io/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every FactorGuide tool call.
