WHAT IT DOES

What getEntityNetwork does on Nodebench

AI agents call getEntityNetwork to retrieve information from Nodebench without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why getEntityNetwork is rated Low

This tool retrieves and queries relationship data about an entity. While it gathers potentially sensitive business intelligence information (holdings, investor relationships, aliases), it performs no write, destructive, execute, or financial operations.

From the tool's definition Tool returns network graph data including aliases, holdings, people, investors, and related entities - these are information retrieval operations with no modification capability mentioned.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs getEntityNetwork safely

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

getEntityNetwork Allowed

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "getEntityNetwork": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Nodebench, apply this rule, and every getEntityNetwork call is checked against it from then on.
