# hamming_distance Calculate Hamming distance between two equal-length strings. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `hamming_distance`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/hamming-distance ## Facts - Tool: `hamming_distance` - Server: UnClick (`@unclick/mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server.md - Install: `npx -y @unclick/mcp-server` - Homepage: https://github.com/malamutemayhem/unclick-agent-native-endpoints.git - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 2 (2 required) - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `text_a` | string | yes | First string. | | `text_b` | string | yes | Second string (must be same length). | Parameters from the server's own tool schema. ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "hamming_distance", "arguments": { "text_a": "", "text_b": "" } } } ``` ## Why hamming_distance is rated Low This is a stateless algorithmic computation. It takes two inputs (strings) and returns a numeric result representing the number of positions at which the characters differ. There is no access to external data, no mutations, no execution of arbitrary code, and no financial implications. The output depends only on the mathematical properties of the input strings. From the tool's own definition: "Tool calculates Hamming distance between two strings—a purely mathematical/computational operation with no side effects, data retrieval, or modification." ## Use case AI agents call hamming_distance 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. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches UnClick: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "hamming_distance": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on UnClick (1661) - `delete_todo` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/delete-todo.md - `email_delete` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/email-delete.md - `file_sync_prune` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/file-sync-prune.md - `pinecone_delete_vectors` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/pinecone-delete-vectors.md - `telegram_manage_chat` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/telegram-manage-chat.md - `upstash_redis_del` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/upstash-redis-del.md - `vault_action` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/vault-action.md - `vercel_delete_env` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/vercel-delete-env.md - `ackermann` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/ackermann.md - `anthropic_create_message` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/anthropic-create-message.md - `avl_tree` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/avl-tree.md - `baby_giant_step` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/baby-giant-step.md - `bellman_ford` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/bellman-ford.md - `bezier_curve` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/bezier-curve.md - `bitmask_ops` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/bitmask-ops.md - `bitwise_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/bitwise-calc.md - `bloom_filter` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/bloom-filter.md - `bluesky_action` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/bluesky-action.md - `burrows_wheeler` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/burrows-wheeler.md - `cartesian_tree` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/cartesian-tree.md - `chromatic_number` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/chromatic-number.md - `circleci_trigger_pipeline` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/circleci-trigger-pipeline.md - `cohere_chat` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/cohere-chat.md - `cohere_classify` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/cohere-classify.md - `cohere_generate` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/cohere-generate.md - `commonsensepass_check` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/commonsensepass-check.md - `complex_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/complex-calc.md - `compliancepass_run` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/compliancepass-run.md - `convex_hull_3d` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/convex-hull-3d.md - `convolution` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/convolution.md - …and 1631 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
