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

Why collatz_sequence is rated Low
This is a mathematical utility that takes a positive integer and computes a well-defined sequence according to the Collatz conjecture algorithm. It has no capability to read sensitive data, modify state, execute arbitrary code, delete data, or move money. The computation is deterministic and reversible in nature. Severity is low because misuse poses no risk to systems or data.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'collatz_sequence' and description 'Compute the Collatz (3n+1) sequence for a positive integer' indicates a pure mathematical computation that retrieves/generates a sequence based on input; no side effects, no data modification, no external…
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs collatz_sequence safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and UnClick, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For collatz_sequence, this is the rule to start with:
collatz_sequence is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect UnClick, apply this rule, and every collatz_sequence call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about collatz_sequence
Compute the Collatz (3n+1) sequence for a positive integer. It is categorised as a Read tool in the UnClick MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
collatz_sequence accepts 1 parameter: number. Required: number. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the UnClick MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for collatz_sequence: 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 UnClick. Nothing to install.
collatz_sequence 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 collatz_sequence 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 collatz_sequence. 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.
collatz_sequence is provided by the UnClick MCP server (@unclick/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
