get_referral_code 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_referral_code to retrieve information from AXIS Toolbox — Agentic Commerce Codebase Intelligence 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_referral_code 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.

What does the get_referral_code tool do? +

Get or create the caller's AXIS referral token. Requires Authorization: Bearer <api_key>, has no usage charge, and may persist a new referral code if one does not exist yet. Example: call before sharing AXIS with another agent or workspace. Use this when you need the shareable token itself. Use get_referral_credits instead when you need balances, milestones, and discount status.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the AXIS Toolbox — Agentic Commerce Codebase Intelligence MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on get_referral_code? +

Register the AXIS Toolbox — Agentic Commerce Codebase Intelligence MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_referral_code: 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 AXIS Toolbox — Agentic Commerce Codebase Intelligence. Nothing to install.

What risk level is get_referral_code? +

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

Can I rate-limit get_referral_code? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_referral_code 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_referral_code completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_referral_code. 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_referral_code? +

get_referral_code is provided by the AXIS Toolbox — Agentic Commerce Codebase Intelligence MCP server (https://axis-api-6c7z.onrender.com/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
