WHAT IT DOES

What util_base_block_time_estimate does on Delx Mcp A2a

AI agents call util_base_block_time_estimate to retrieve information from Delx Mcp A2a 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
`duration_seconds`	integer	Yes	Duration Seconds supplied to Base Block Time Estimate; used only for this bounded calculation and processed in memory without retention.
`assumed_block_seconds`	number	Yes	Assumed Block Seconds supplied to Base Block Time Estimate; used only for this bounded calculation and processed in memory without retention.

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why util_base_block_time_estimate is rated Low

Even though util_base_block_time_estimate 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.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs util_base_block_time_estimate safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Delx Mcp A2a, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For util_base_block_time_estimate, this is the rule to start with:

util_base_block_time_estimate Allowed

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

FAQ

Questions about util_base_block_time_estimate

What does the util_base_block_time_estimate tool do? +

Base Block Time Estimate estimates block count from a caller-supplied duration and block-time assumption from bounded caller-supplied values without an external provider. Call Base Block Time Estimate before signing, submitting, replacing, or accepting an EVM/Base transaction assembled from caller-owned data. Returns normalized transaction evidence, calculated budget or shape findings, and a fail-closed preflight status for Base Block Time Estimate as versioned deterministic JSON. Limitation: Uses caller-supplied values only; it performs no RPC call, signing, broadcasting, balance lookup, custody, trading, or live-chain claim. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Delx Mcp A2a MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

What parameters does util_base_block_time_estimate accept? +

util_base_block_time_estimate accepts 2 parameters: duration_seconds, assumed_block_seconds. Required: duration_seconds, assumed_block_seconds. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on util_base_block_time_estimate? +

Register the Delx Mcp A2a MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for util_base_block_time_estimate: 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 Delx Mcp A2a. Nothing to install.

What risk level is util_base_block_time_estimate? +

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

Can I rate-limit util_base_block_time_estimate? +

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

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

util_base_block_time_estimate is provided by the Delx Mcp A2a MCP server (https://api.delx.ai/v1/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
