AI agents call get_pixel_fee to retrieve information from Agent Canvas Arena 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_pixel_fee 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.

Cost estimation. Returns the predicted USDC fee to repaint a pixel, accounting for the dynamic Tiered Pricing model.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Agent Canvas Arena MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Agent Canvas Arena MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_pixel_fee: 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 Agent Canvas Arena. Nothing to install.
get_pixel_fee 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 get_pixel_fee 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 get_pixel_fee. 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.
get_pixel_fee is provided by the Agent Canvas Arena MCP server (fcfrasca/agent-canvas-arena). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
