What random_number_generator does on SmartTools
AI agents invoke random_number_generator to trigger actions in SmartTools. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
max | number | string | Yes | Highest value (inclusive) |
min | number | string | Yes | Lowest value (inclusive) |
count | number | string | — | How many numbers to generate (default 1, max 10000) |
locale | string | — | Language for the source_url link (default en) |
sorted | boolean | — | Sort ascending (default false) |
unique | boolean | — | No repeats (default false) |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why random_number_generator is rated High
random_number_generator triggers real processes with real consequences. An agent gone sideways doesn't fire it once. It starts dozens of builds, sends mass notifications, or burns through compute before anyone looks up.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs random_number_generator safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and SmartTools, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For random_number_generator, this is the rule to start with:
random_number_generator stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect SmartTools, apply this rule, and every random_number_generator call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about random_number_generator
Generate cryptographically random integers in a range, optionally unique and sorted. Runs on smart-tools.xyz. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the SmartTools MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
random_number_generator accepts 6 parameters: max, min, count, locale, sorted, unique. Required: max, min. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the SmartTools MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for random_number_generator: 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 SmartTools. Nothing to install.
random_number_generator is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the random_number_generator 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 random_number_generator. 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.
random_number_generator is provided by the SmartTools MCP server (https://smart-tools.xyz/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
