What analyze_blast_radius does on Logicmonitor
AI agents call analyze_blast_radius to retrieve information from Logicmonitor without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why analyze_blast_radius is rated Low
Even though analyze_blast_radius only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs analyze_blast_radius safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Logicmonitor, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For analyze_blast_radius, this is the rule to start with:
analyze_blast_radius 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 Logicmonitor, apply this rule, and every analyze_blast_radius call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about analyze_blast_radius
Analyze the blast radius of a device failure using topology. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Logicmonitor MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Logicmonitor MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for analyze_blast_radius: 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 Logicmonitor. Nothing to install.
analyze_blast_radius 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 analyze_blast_radius 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 analyze_blast_radius. 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.
analyze_blast_radius is provided by the Logicmonitor MCP server (pypi:lm-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
