acl_health

What acl_health does on Yaver

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

Why acl_health is rated Low

A health check is a read-only operation that queries the status of system components. It retrieves diagnostic information about connected peers but does not create, modify, delete, execute code, or commit financial actions. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker could gather information about system connectivity but cannot directly harm data or trigger external operations.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'acl_health' and description 'Health check all connected MCP peers' indicate a query or monitoring operation that retrieves status information without modifying or executing actions.

The rule that runs acl_health safely

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

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