What ratio_simplify does on UnClick
AI agents call ratio_simplify 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.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
a | number | Yes | First value. |
b | number | Yes | Second value (non-zero). |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why ratio_simplify is rated Low
This tool performs a stateless mathematical computation (finding greatest common divisor and simplifying fractions) with no side effects. It takes numeric inputs and returns transformed outputs without accessing data systems, executing code, or causing any observable state changes.
From the tool's definition Tool performs mathematical simplification of a ratio a:b returning decimal and percentage forms. No data is retrieved from external sources, modified, deleted, or executed. The operation is purely computational transformation of input parameters.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs ratio_simplify 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 ratio_simplify, this is the rule to start with:
ratio_simplify 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 ratio_simplify call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about ratio_simplify
Simplify a ratio a:b to its lowest terms. Returns decimal and percentage forms. It is categorised as a Read tool in the UnClick MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
ratio_simplify accepts 2 parameters: a, b. Required: a, b. 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 ratio_simplify: 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.
ratio_simplify 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 ratio_simplify 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 ratio_simplify. 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.
ratio_simplify 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.
