WHAT IT DOES

What sort_data does on GadgetHumans API Hub

AI agents call sort_data 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.

RISK

Why sort_data is rated Low

Sorting is a read-only operation that rearranges data in memory without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing external commands. The input array remains logically unchanged (same elements, different order). No financial, destructive, or code-execution implications. Confidence is high because the description is clear and unambiguous.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Sort an array of values or objects' — a pure data transformation operation with no side effects, no data modification, no external calls.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs sort_data 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 sort_data, this is the rule to start with:

sort_data Allowed

sort_data is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "sort_data": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect GadgetHumans API Hub, apply this rule, and every sort_data call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about sort_data

What does the sort_data tool do? +

Sort an array of values or objects. It is categorised as a Read tool in the GadgetHumans API Hub MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on sort_data? +

Register the GadgetHumans API Hub MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for sort_data: 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.

What risk level is sort_data? +

sort_data is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit sort_data? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the sort_data 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.

How do I block sort_data completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for sort_data. 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.

What MCP server provides sort_data? +

sort_data 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.
