get_job_status 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_job_status to retrieve information from Hyperplexity 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_job_status 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_job_status only ever does what you allow.

What does the get_job_status tool do? +

One-shot job status check. Prefer wait_for_job for tracking long-running jobs. Use this for quick status inspections or as a fallback when wait_for_job is not appropriate. For polling loops, wait_for_job is more efficient — it holds the connection, emits live MCP progress notifications, and handles the multi-phase pipeline (table-maker → preview) automatically. Key statuses: queued / processing → call wait_for_job instead of re-polling manually preview_complete → approve_validation (or refine_config) completed → get_results failed → check error field. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Hyperplexity MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on get_job_status? +

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

What risk level is get_job_status? +

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

Can I rate-limit get_job_status? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_job_status 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_job_status completely? +

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

get_job_status is provided by the Hyperplexity MCP server (hyperplexity/hyperplexity). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Hyperplexity tool call.
