Obtained from echo.facility_search resul | Parameters from the server's own tool schema. ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "echo.compliance.violations", "arguments": { "registry_id": "" } } } ``` ## Why echo.compliance.violations is rated Low Tool retrieves historical compliance data from public EPA registry without modifying records or triggering external actions. From the tool's own definition: "Retrieve enforcement actions and violation history; Returns enforcement activity, penalties, affected program codes." ## Use case AI agents call echo.compliance.violations to retrieve information from Apibase 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 Apibase: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "echo.compliance.violations": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on Apibase (1383) - `infra.cloudflare.dns_delete` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/infra.cloudflare.dns-delete.md - `infra.cloudflare.purge_cache` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/infra.cloudflare.purge-cache.md - `polymarket.trading.cancel_order` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/polymarket.trading.cancel-order.md - `ai.image.generate` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/ai.image.generate.md - `aipush.market.report` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/aipush.market.report.md - `audio.transcribe.submit` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/audio.transcribe.submit.md - `dev.code.execute` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/dev.code.execute.md - `device.registry.command` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/device.registry.command.md - `document.convert.from_pdf` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/document.convert.from-pdf.md - `document.convert.to_pdf` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/document.convert.to-pdf.md - `document.convert.web_to_pdf` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/document.convert.web-to-pdf.md - `hf_inference.nlp.translate` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/hf-inference.nlp.translate.md - `infra.browser.create_session` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/infra.browser.create-session.md - `phone.telnyx.sms_world` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/phone.telnyx.sms-world.md - `phone.twilio.sms` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/phone.twilio.sms.md - `platform.batch.call` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/platform.batch.call.md - `scb.tables.query` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/scb.tables.query.md - `socrata.datasets.query` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/socrata.datasets.query.md - `web.screenshot.capture` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/web.screenshot.capture.md - `domain.namesilo.register` — Financial — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/domain.namesilo.register.md - `phone.telnyx.sms_premium` — Financial — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/phone.telnyx.sms-premium.md - `polymarket.trading.place_order` — Financial — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/polymarket.trading.place-order.md - `abr.business.abn_lookup` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/abr.business.abn-lookup.md - `abr.business.acn_lookup` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/abr.business.acn-lookup.md - `abr.business.name_search` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/abr.business.name-search.md - `abs.demographics.population` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/abs.demographics.population.md - `abs.economy.cpi` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/abs.economy.cpi.md - `abs.economy.gdp` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/abs.economy.gdp.md - `abs.economy.labour_force` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/abs.economy.labour-force.md - `abs.economy.trade` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase/abs.economy.trade.md - …and 1353 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-whiteknightonhorse-apibase.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
