get_api_reference

Get the per-class API reference for an amCharts 5 class — the class page PLUS its settings table (with DEFAULTS) and, optionally, its private/read-only settings. This is the authoritative source for exact setting names and default values (e.g. tooltip background cornerRadius, axis tick visible de...

get_api_reference 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_api_reference to retrieve information from Amcharts5 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_api_reference 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_api_reference only ever does what you allow.

What does the get_api_reference tool do? +

Get the per-class API reference for an amCharts 5 class — the class page PLUS its settings table (with DEFAULTS) and, optionally, its private/read-only settings. This is the authoritative source for exact setting names and default values (e.g. tooltip background cornerRadius, axis tick visible default). Pass a class name in any casing, e.g. 'XYCursor', 'Tooltip', 'PieSeries', 'AxisRendererX'.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Amcharts5 MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on get_api_reference? +

Register the Amcharts5 MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_api_reference: 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 Amcharts5. Nothing to install.

What risk level is get_api_reference? +

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

Can I rate-limit get_api_reference? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_api_reference 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_api_reference completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_api_reference. 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_api_reference? +

get_api_reference is provided by the Amcharts5 MCP server (@amcharts/amcharts5-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Amcharts5 tool call.
