What calc_unit does on GoCreative Agent API
AI agents call calc_unit to retrieve information from GoCreative Agent API without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |

arg | string | Yes |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why calc_unit is rated Low
Even though calc_unit only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs calc_unit safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and GoCreative Agent API, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For calc_unit, this is the rule to start with:
calc_unit is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect GoCreative Agent API, apply this rule, and every calc_unit call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about calc_unit
Universal unit converter — 'value-FROM-TO' across length, mass, volume, area, speed, time, energy, pressure, power, digi Cost: $0.005–$0.05 USDC on Base per call. It is categorised as a Read tool in the GoCreative Agent API MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
calc_unit accepts 1 parameter: arg. Required: arg. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the GoCreative Agent API MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for calc_unit: 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 GoCreative Agent API. Nothing to install.
calc_unit is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the calc_unit 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 calc_unit. 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.
calc_unit is provided by the GoCreative Agent API MCP server (https://api.gocreativeai.com/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
