WHAT IT DOES

What gala_launchpad_fetch_messages does on Gala

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

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`type`	string	—	Message type filter (CHAT for chat messages, COMMENT for comments).
`cursor`	string	—	Cursor from previous response (omit for first page).
`search`	string	—	Full-text search on message content (case-insensitive partial match).
`pageSize`	integer	—	Results per page (default: 20, maximum: 100)
`tokenName`	string	—	Token name to filter by (e.g., "anime").
`userAddress`	string	—	User address to filter by (eth\|... or 0x... format).

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why gala_launchpad_fetch_messages is rated Low

Even though gala_launchpad_fetch_messages only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
