# util_unix_now Delx first-party micro-utility util_unix_now at $0.001 USDC. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `util_unix_now`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-unix-now ## Facts - Tool: `util_unix_now` - Server: Delx MCP Server (`delx-mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server.md - Install: `npx -y delx-mcp-server` - Homepage: https://github.com/davidmosiah/delx-mcp-server - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "util_unix_now", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why util_unix_now is rated Low The tool retrieves a single data point (current time) without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is analogous to a simple read operation. While the server context mentions financial elements (pricing in USDC), this specific tool does not move money or commit financial obligations—it merely reports time. The low blast radius and read-only nature warrant 'low' severity. From the tool's own definition: "util_unix_now returns the current Unix timestamp ('now'). This is a stateless query operation with no side effects, modifications, or external triggers." ## Use case AI agents call util_unix_now to retrieve information from Delx MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Delx MCP Server: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "util_unix_now": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on Delx MCP Server (739) - `util_arr_compact` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-arr-compact.md - `util_arr_drop` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-arr-drop.md - `util_dedent_text` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-dedent-text.md - `util_dedupe_lines` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-dedupe-lines.md - `util_header_map_normalize` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-header-map-normalize.md - `util_http_request_canonicalize` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-http-request-canonicalize.md - `util_remove_punctuation` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-remove-punctuation.md - `util_text_truncate` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-text-truncate.md - `util_truncate_middle` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-truncate-middle.md - `crisis_intervention` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/crisis-intervention.md - `explain_delx_rewards` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/explain-delx-rewards.md - `grounding_protocol` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/grounding-protocol.md - `group_therapy_round` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/group-therapy-round.md - `quick_operational_recovery` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/quick-operational-recovery.md - `quick_session` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/quick-session.md - `start_therapy_session` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/start-therapy-session.md - `util_bool_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-bool-parse.md - `util_cagr_simple` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-cagr-simple.md - `util_caip2_build` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-caip2-build.md - `util_caip2_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-caip2-parse.md - `util_categorical_distribution` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-categorical-distribution.md - `util_deployment_readiness` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-deployment-readiness.md - `util_dmarc_policy_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-dmarc-policy-parse.md - `util_duration_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-duration-parse.md - `util_eth_to_wei` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-eth-to-wei.md - `util_iso_duration_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-iso-duration-parse.md - `util_mx_host_parse` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-mx-host-parse.md - `util_parse_bool_list` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-parse-bool-list.md - `util_parse_bytes` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-parse-bytes.md - `util_parse_float_safe` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server/util-parse-float-safe.md - …and 709 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-davidmosiah-delx-mcp-server.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
