cross_walk 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 cross_walk to retrieve information from Openswissdata 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 cross_walk 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.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access cross_walk gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so cross_walk only ever does what you allow.

What does the cross_walk tool do? +

Translate an industry classification code between schemes (NOGA 2008/2025, NACE 2.0/2.1, ISIC 4). Returns all mappings with their type (exact, partial, aggregated, derived) and notes.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Openswissdata MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on cross_walk? +

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

What risk level is cross_walk? +

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

Can I rate-limit cross_walk? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the cross_walk 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 cross_walk completely? +

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

cross_walk is provided by the Openswissdata MCP server (@openswissdata/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Openswissdata tool call.
