Search EU public-procurement notices from TED (Tenders Electronic Daily). Filter by country (ISO 3-letter buyer country e.g. DEU/FRA), cpv (Common Procurement Vocabulary code, e.g. 72000000 IT services), and/or keyword (full-text); or pass a raw TED expert
AI agents call gov.eu-tenders to retrieve information from Mcp without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool performs read-only operations against a public procurement database (TED). It retrieves and filters existing data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any actions. The search/filter functionality is characteristic of Read category tools. Severity is low because the data is public and retrieval causes no side effects or system impact.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Search EU public-procurement notices' and 'Filter by country, cpv, and/or keyword' — these are query and retrieval operations with no modification or execution capabilities.

It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for gov.eu-tenders: 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 Mcp. Nothing to install.
gov.eu-tenders 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 gov.eu-tenders 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 gov.eu-tenders. 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.
gov.eu-tenders is provided by the MCP server (@2sio/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
