What content_compare does on Gapup Mcp
AI agents call content_compare to retrieve information from Gapup Mcp 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
async | boolean | — | If true, returns a job_id immediately (<200ms) instead of waiting for the result. Poll the result with job_result(job_id). Use for slow tools to avoid client ti |
entity_a | string | Yes | Id of the first entity from content_catalog (e.g. 'game-dark-souls', 'music-daft-punk'). |
entity_b | string | Yes | Id of the second entity from content_catalog (e.g. 'game-elden-ring', 'music-justice'). |
entity_type | string | — | Whether both ids are franchises or works (applies to both). Defaults to 'franchise'. |

Why content_compare is rated Low
This tool retrieves and analyzes existing data (tag profiles and similarity metrics) without modifying, executing, deleting, or moving money. It performs a read-only comparison operation to answer analytical questions about content similarity. No side effects or irreversible actions are possible.
From the tool's definition Compare the tag profiles of two content entities (franchises or works) and measure how similar they are. Returns a Jaccard similarity score, the list of shared tags, the tags unique to each entity, and a breakdown of shared tags by facet.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs content_compare safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Gapup Mcp, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For content_compare, this is the rule to start with:
content_compare 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 Gapup Mcp, apply this rule, and every content_compare call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about content_compare
Compare the tag profiles of two content entities (franchises or works) and measure how similar they are. Returns a Jaccard similarity score, the list of shared tags, the tags unique to each entity, and a breakdown of shared tags by facet. When to use this tool: an agent needs to compare two franchises or works (e.g. 'how similar are Dark Souls and Elden Ring?', 'what do Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat have in common?', 'on which axes do these two games differ?'), find positioning overlap, identify cross-sell opportunities, or answer 'if you liked X you might like Y' questions backed by data. Works for any domain (video-games, music, film, tv). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Gapup Mcp MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
content_compare accepts 4 parameters: async, entity_a, entity_b, entity_type. Required: entity_a, entity_b. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Gapup MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for content_compare: 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 Gapup Mcp. Nothing to install.
content_compare 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 content_compare 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 content_compare. 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.
content_compare is provided by the Gapup MCP server (https://mcp.gapup.io/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
