AI agents call divide to retrieve information from TinyFn without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
a | number | Yes | Dividend (number to be divided) |
b | number | Yes | Divisor (number to divide by) |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
This is a deterministic mathematical function that retrieves a computation result without reading from databases, modifying state, executing arbitrary code, destroying data, or involving financial transactions. It fits the Read category as a retrieval/computation operation with no side effects. Severity is low because misuse of a basic arithmetic operation poses minimal risk regardless of context.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'divide' with description 'Divide a by b' - a pure mathematical operation that takes two numeric inputs and returns a computed result with no side effects, no data modification, and no external operations.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Divide a by b. It is categorised as a Read tool in the TinyFn MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
divide accepts 2 parameters: a, b. Required: a, b. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the TinyFn MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for divide: 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 TinyFn. Nothing to install.
divide 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 divide 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 divide. 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.
divide is provided by the TinyFn MCP server (https://api.tinyfn.io/mcp/all/). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
divide is one line of TinyFn's registry record.
The record carries the whole server: verified identity, auth posture, risk grade, every tool classified, recommended policy — re-checked continuously.
