get_creator

Fetch the full record for a single creator by ID or exact platform username. Use this when you already have either: - a canonical creator UUID returned by search_creators, semantic_search_creators, autocomplete_creators, or find_lookalike_creators; or - an exact platform+username pair such as pla...

get_creator is read-only, but an agent in a loop can still rack up calls and cost. PolicyLayer caps every call before it runs. Live in minutes.

AI agents call get_creator to retrieve information from Influship without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.

Even though get_creator only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.

Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so get_creator only ever does what you allow.

What does the get_creator tool do? +

Fetch the full record for a single creator by ID or exact platform username. Use this when you already have either: - a canonical creator UUID returned by search_creators, semantic_search_creators, autocomplete_creators, or find_lookalike_creators; or - an exact platform+username pair such as platform "instagram" and username "niickjackson". Pass include: ['profiles'] to also receive the creator's social profile summaries when using a creator UUID. For platform+username inputs, this tool resolves through the profile endpoint and returns the profile record plus the underlying creator record, so you already get the matched profile context. Examples: - User: "Get creator 123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000" -> call with id. - User: "Get @niickjackson on Instagram" -> call with platform "instagram" and username "niickjackson", or use get_profile if profile metrics are the main need. - User: "Tell me about @niickjackson and include his profiles" -> use platform "instagram" and username "niickjackson"; then use get_profile/get_posts for platform-specific metrics and content if needed. Use lookup_profiles for batch exact profile lookups.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Influship MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on get_creator? +

Register the Influship MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_creator: 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 Influship. Nothing to install.

What risk level is get_creator? +

get_creator is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit get_creator? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_creator 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.

How do I block get_creator completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_creator. 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.

What MCP server provides get_creator? +

get_creator is provided by the Influship MCP server (@influship/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Influship tool call.
