What lookup_rubygem does on GoCreative Agent API
AI agents call lookup_rubygem 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.

Why lookup_rubygem is rated Low
This tool retrieves read-only metadata from RubyGems, a public package repository. It performs a simple lookup/fetch operation with no side effects, code execution, data modification, or destructive actions. The low cost ($0.005–$0.05) and framing as 'Ruby-dependency research' further confirm it is a passive query. No blast radius from misuse beyond retrieving public data about packages.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get RubyGems package metadata (version, downloads, repo)' — retrieval of public package information with no modification or execution capability. Example call queries a public package name ('rails') for metadata lookup.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs lookup_rubygem 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 lookup_rubygem, this is the rule to start with:
lookup_rubygem 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 lookup_rubygem call is checked against it from then on.

lookup_rubygem accepts 1 parameter: pkg. Required: pkg. 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 lookup_rubygem: 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.
lookup_rubygem 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 lookup_rubygem 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 lookup_rubygem. 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.
lookup_rubygem 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.
