What bazaar_list does on Algorand MCP
AI agents call bazaar_list to retrieve information from Algorand MCP without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Severity is elevated to 'high' rather than 'low' because: (1) it operates within a financial/blockchain context (Algorand), (2) it accesses paid API resources which could be sensitive or proprietary, and (3) an AI agent with unconstrained access could enumerate and discover…
From the tool's definition Tool name 'bazaar_list' and description 'Browse paid API resources cataloged in the Bazaar' indicate retrieval/querying of catalog data. The verb 'Browse' and 'Returns a compact summary' confirm read-only semantics without data modification.

The rule that runs bazaar_list safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Algorand MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For bazaar_list, this is the rule to start with:
bazaar_list is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Algorand MCP, apply this rule, and every bazaar_list call is checked against it from then on.
