What calculate_bmi does on GadgetHumans API Hub
AI agents call calculate_bmi to retrieve information from GadgetHumans API Hub without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why calculate_bmi is rated Low
This is a mathematical utility that takes numeric inputs (weight and height) and returns a computed value (BMI). It has no side effects, does not modify any data, does not execute code or commands, and does not involve financial transactions. It fits the Read category as a data computation/retrieval tool with minimal security risk.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Calculate BMI (Body Mass Index) from weight and height' - a pure computation that retrieves a calculated result without modifying, deleting, or executing external operations.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs calculate_bmi safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and GadgetHumans API Hub, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For calculate_bmi, this is the rule to start with:
calculate_bmi 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 GadgetHumans API Hub, apply this rule, and every calculate_bmi call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about calculate_bmi
Calculate BMI (Body Mass Index) from weight and height. It is categorised as a Read tool in the GadgetHumans API Hub MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the GadgetHumans API Hub MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for calculate_bmi: 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 GadgetHumans API Hub. Nothing to install.
calculate_bmi 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 calculate_bmi 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 calculate_bmi. 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.
calculate_bmi is provided by the GadgetHumans API Hub MCP server (pypi:gadgethumans-api-hub-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
