WHAT IT DOES

What get_service does on MIDAS Protocol

AI agents call get_service to retrieve information from MIDAS Protocol without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

`serviceId`	string	Yes

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why get_service is rated Low

This tool retrieves information about a service without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything. It has no side effects and does not commit financial obligations. Although it operates within a financial infrastructure system (MIDAS Protocol), the tool itself merely queries service metadata.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_service' with description 'Get details of a specific service' indicates a retrieval operation. The verb 'Get' and the read-only nature of fetching service details align with the Read category.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs get_service safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and MIDAS Protocol, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_service, this is the rule to start with:

get_service Allowed

get_service is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_service": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect MIDAS Protocol, apply this rule, and every get_service call is checked against it from then on.
