What comp_benchmark_geo_delta does on Mcp Knowledge
AI agents call comp_benchmark_geo_delta to retrieve information from Mcp Knowledge 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 |
jobRole | string | Yes | Standardized job role (e.g., 'Software Engineer III') |
currency | string | — | ISO 4217 currency code (e.g., 'USD') |
baseSalary | number | — | Current base salary in local currency |
hqLocation | string | Yes | HQ location (ISO 3166-2 code or city, country) |
localLocation | string | Yes | Local work location (ISO 3166-2 code or city, country) |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why comp_benchmark_geo_delta is rated Low
The tool performs analytical comparison and calculation of compensation data, producing informational outputs (deltas, multipliers, impact figures). It retrieves and processes benchmark data without creating, modifying, or deleting any records, and has no financial transaction capability.
From the tool's definition Compares local compensation benchmarks against HQ standards... Outputs include adjusted benchmark delta, cost-of-living multiplier, and tax impact
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs comp_benchmark_geo_delta safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Knowledge, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For comp_benchmark_geo_delta, this is the rule to start with:
comp_benchmark_geo_delta 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 Mcp Knowledge, apply this rule, and every comp_benchmark_geo_delta call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about comp_benchmark_geo_delta
Compares local compensation benchmarks against HQ standards for CHROs, adjusting for cost-of-living and tax differentials. Inputs include job role, local and HQ locations, and salary range. Outputs include adjusted benchmark delta, cost-of-living multiplier, and tax impact. Keywords: compensation benchmark, geographic pay equity, cost-of-living adjustment, tax differential analysis. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp Knowledge MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
comp_benchmark_geo_delta accepts 6 parameters: async, jobRole, currency, baseSalary, hqLocation, localLocation. Required: jobRole, hqLocation, localLocation. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Mcp Knowledge MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for comp_benchmark_geo_delta: 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 Mcp Knowledge. Nothing to install.
comp_benchmark_geo_delta 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 comp_benchmark_geo_delta 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 comp_benchmark_geo_delta. 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.
comp_benchmark_geo_delta is provided by the Mcp Knowledge MCP server (https://mcp.gapup.io). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
