AI agents call tf_preview_regime to retrieve information from Terminalfeed 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 tf_preview_regime 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.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so tf_preview_regime only ever does what you allow.

What does the tf_preview_regime tool do? +

Free, zero-setup preview of the paid tf_premium_regime verdict. Returns the single regime label (risk_on / risk_off / transition / stress), the risk_score, the confidence, the one dominant driver, and a one-line why. Rate-limited to 10/IP/day and unsigned.
