incidents.search 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 incidents.search to retrieve information from AIStatusDashboard 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 incidents.search 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 incidents.search only ever does what you allow.

How do I enforce a policy on incidents.search? +

Register the AIStatusDashboard MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for incidents.search: 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 AIStatusDashboard. Nothing to install.

What risk level is incidents.search? +

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

Can I rate-limit incidents.search? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the incidents.search 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 incidents.search completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for incidents.search. 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 incidents.search? +
