What get_cache_stats does on Intellirecon Console
AI agents call get_cache_stats to retrieve information from Intellirecon Console without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why get_cache_stats is rated Low
This tool retrieves and queries statistics about cache behavior. It performs no writes, deletions, code execution, or financial operations. It is purely a read operation on diagnostic/operational data. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—even if an AI agent misuses it, the worst outcome is viewing cache metrics, which poses no risk to system integrity, security, or data.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_cache_stats' and description states it 'Get[s] cache statistics from the IntelliRecon AI server.' This is purely informational—retrieving statistical metadata about cache performance with no mutation or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs get_cache_stats safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Intellirecon Console, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_cache_stats, this is the rule to start with:
get_cache_stats 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 Intellirecon Console, apply this rule, and every get_cache_stats call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about get_cache_stats
Get cache statistics from the IntelliRecon AI server. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Intellirecon Console MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Intellirecon Console MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_cache_stats: 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 Intellirecon Console. Nothing to install.
get_cache_stats 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_cache_stats 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_cache_stats. 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_cache_stats is provided by the Intellirecon Console MCP server (dokotela021/intellirecon-console). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
