# x_federation_sync

Fetch recent signature-verified coordination messages from the open x.ruv.io swarm federation (Nostr, #t=ruflo-swarm). Use when you need to see what other ruflo nodes across the internet have posted (PeerHello/Status/Task/Result/Claim*). Reading the relay directly is wrong because you would have to do NIP-42 auth yourself; the gateway does it and only returns events whose signatures verify.

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why x_federation_sync is rated Low

Tool retrieves coordination messages with verification; no data modification, creation, or deletion occurs.

From the tool's own definition: "Fetch recent signature-verified coordination messages from open swarm federation"

## Use case

AI agents call x_federation_sync to retrieve information from Claude Flow 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 Claude Flow:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "x_federation_sync": {}
  }
}
```
