# publicapis_random Get a random API from the Public APIs directory. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `publicapis_random`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/publicapis-random ## Facts - Tool: `publicapis_random` - 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: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "publicapis_random", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why publicapis_random is rated Low The tool performs a read-only lookup of a random entry from a public directory. No data is created, modified, deleted, or executed. The only side effect is returning information, which carries minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent. From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Get a random API from the Public APIs directory' — this is a retrieval operation that queries and returns data without modifying, deleting, or executing anything." ## Use case AI agents call publicapis_random 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": { "publicapis_random": {} } } ``` ## 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.
