What util_json_pointer_get does on Delx Protocol — Agent Recovery & Continuity
AI agents call util_json_pointer_get to retrieve information from Delx Protocol — Agent Recovery & Continuity 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
pointer | string | Yes | Pointer supplied to JSON Pointer Get; used only for this bounded calculation and processed in memory without retention. |
document | object | Yes | Document supplied to JSON Pointer Get; used only for this bounded calculation and processed in memory without retention. |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why util_json_pointer_get is rated Low
Even though util_json_pointer_get 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 util_json_pointer_get safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Delx Protocol — Agent Recovery & Continuity, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For util_json_pointer_get, this is the rule to start with:
util_json_pointer_get 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 Delx Protocol — Agent Recovery & Continuity, apply this rule, and every util_json_pointer_get call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about util_json_pointer_get
JSON Pointer Get resolves a bounded RFC 6901-style JSON pointer from bounded caller-supplied values without an external provider. Call JSON Pointer Get before an agent hands structured data or a batch plan to a downstream tool with a stricter contract. Returns the bounded transformation or validation finding with counts, normalized values, and a versioned result contract for JSON Pointer Get as versioned deterministic JSON. Limitation: Processes bounded caller-supplied data in memory only; it performs no file fetch, database write, code execution, or retention. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Delx Protocol — Agent Recovery & Continuity MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
util_json_pointer_get accepts 2 parameters: pointer, document. Required: pointer, document. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Delx Protocol — Agent Recovery & Continuity MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for util_json_pointer_get: 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 Protocol — Agent Recovery & Continuity. Nothing to install.
util_json_pointer_get 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 util_json_pointer_get 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 util_json_pointer_get. 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.
util_json_pointer_get is provided by the Delx Protocol — Agent Recovery & Continuity MCP server (https://api.delx.ai/v1/mcp?src=registry). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
