AI agents call get_receipt to retrieve information from TrustBench 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_receipt 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.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_receipt gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:
Other read tools across the catalogue. The same approach applies to each: allow, with a rate cap to control cost.
Fetch a TrustBench routing receipt by ID. Receipts are immutable, Ed25519-signed records of a routing or payment event. Use to verify what was paid, to whom, for what capability, and what the on-chain settlement reference is. IDs start with rcpt_ (Phase 3) or rrcpt_ (Phase 4). Output: returns the signed receipt envelope as JSON. Phase 3 (rcpt_) returns a SignedReceipt with receipt (call metadata + settlement ref) and signature (Ed25519 over JCS-canonicalized receipt body). Phase 4 (rrcpt_) returns {receipt, signature} where receipt.paid contains routing details and signature covers the canonical envelope. To verify an envelope offline use the verify_receipt tool with the returned JSON, or @trustbench/verify-receipt npm.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the TrustBench MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the TrustBench MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_receipt: 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 TrustBench. Nothing to install.
get_receipt 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 get_receipt 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 get_receipt. 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.
get_receipt is provided by the TrustBench MCP server (@trustbench/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
