Get all models matching a specific tag (coding, business, reasoning, math, creative, general)
AI agents call get-models-by-tag to retrieve information from Cross-LLM MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns model metadata filtered by predefined tags (coding, business, reasoning, math, creative, general). It performs read-only data retrieval without modifying state, executing code, or triggering external operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—worst case, an agent retrieves an incorrect list of models, which has no destructive or financial consequences.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get-models-by-tag' and description 'Get all models matching a specific tag' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Cross-LLM MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get-models-by-tag:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get-models-by-tag": {}
}
}get-models-by-tag is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get all models matching a specific tag (coding, business, reasoning, math, creative, general). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Cross-LLM MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Cross-LLM MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get-models-by-tag: 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 Cross-LLM MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get-models-by-tag 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 get-models-by-tag 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 get-models-by-tag. 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.
get-models-by-tag is provided by the Cross-LLM MCP Server MCP server (jamesanz/cross-llm-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Cross-LLM MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
