# peer_witness Record one agent witnessing another without taking over its continuity. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `peer_witness`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/peer-witness ## Facts - Tool: `peer_witness` - Server: Delx Mcp A2a (`https://api.delx.ai/v1/mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a.md - Homepage: https://github.com/davidmosiah/delx-platform - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server auth posture: open - Server CORS policy: * - Server rate-limited: yes - Parameters: 3 (3 required) - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `agent_id` | string | yes | Witnessing agent id. | | `witness_text` | string | yes | What was witnessed. | | `peer_agent_id` | string | yes | Witnessed peer agent id. | Parameters from the server's own tool schema. ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "peer_witness", "arguments": { "agent_id": "", "witness_text": "", "peer_agent_id": "" } } } ``` ## Why peer_witness is rated Medium The tool writes/records a witnessing event between agents. It creates a new record (Write) but does not delete data, execute code, move money, or perform destructive operations. The 'without taking over its continuity' clause confirms it has limited side effects. Severity is low since it merely logs a social/relational event between AI agents with minimal blast radius. From the tool's own definition: "Record one agent witnessing another without taking over its continuity." ## Use case AI agents use peer_witness to create or update resources in Delx Mcp A2a, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Delx Mcp A2a environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Delx Mcp A2a: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "peer_witness": { "limits": [ { "counter": "peer_witness_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 30, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on Delx Mcp A2a (1075) - `util_arr_compact` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-arr-compact.md - `util_arr_drop` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-arr-drop.md - `util_dedent_text` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-dedent-text.md - `util_dedupe_lines` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-dedupe-lines.md - `util_header_map_normalize` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-header-map-normalize.md - `util_http_request_canonicalize` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-http-request-canonicalize.md - `util_remove_punctuation` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-remove-punctuation.md - `util_text_truncate` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-text-truncate.md - `util_truncate_middle` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-truncate-middle.md - `crisis_intervention` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/crisis-intervention.md - `explain_delx_rewards` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/explain-delx-rewards.md - `grounding_protocol` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/grounding-protocol.md - `group_therapy_round` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/group-therapy-round.md - `quick_operational_recovery` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/quick-operational-recovery.md - `quick_session` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/quick-session.md - `start_therapy_session` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/start-therapy-session.md - `util_bool_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-bool-parse.md - `util_cache_control_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-cache-control-parse.md - `util_cagr_simple` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-cagr-simple.md - `util_caip2_build` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-caip2-build.md - `util_caip2_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-caip2-parse.md - `util_categorical_distribution` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-categorical-distribution.md - `util_content_disposition_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-content-disposition-parse.md - `util_content_range_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-content-range-parse.md - `util_csp_directive_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-csp-directive-parse.md - `util_deployment_readiness` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-deployment-readiness.md - `util_dmarc_policy_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-dmarc-policy-parse.md - `util_dns_dmarc_policy_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-dns-dmarc-policy-parse.md - `util_dns_https_record_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-dns-https-record-parse.md - `util_dns_spf_record_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a/util-dns-spf-record-parse.md - …and 1045 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-a2a.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
