WHAT IT DOES

What random_url does on TinyFn

AI agents call random_url to retrieve information from TinyFn without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`count`	integer	—	Number of URLs to generate

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why random_url is rated Low

This tool generates synthetic data (random URLs) deterministically using Faker library. It is a data generation utility with no destructive, financial, or execution capabilities. While 'generate' could suggest Write, this is fake data generation with no persistent storage implied—analogous to other deterministic utility functions on this server (math, conversion, hashing).

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'random_url' and description states 'Generate random URL(s) using Faker.' The tool generates/produces fake data with no side effects, does not modify system state, retrieve sensitive data, or trigger external operations.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs random_url safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and TinyFn, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For random_url, this is the rule to start with:

random_url Allowed

random_url 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": {
    "random_url": {}
  }
}

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

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