Compute regression metrics from a gold-set JSONL file.
AI agents call compute_evaluation_metrics to retrieve information from Scifinder Route without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool reads a gold-set JSONL file and computes evaluation metrics (regression statistics). It retrieves and calculates data without modifying, deleting, or executing external operations. It is a read/analysis operation with low blast radius.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Compute regression metrics from a gold-set JSONL file. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Scifinder Route MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Scifinder Route MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for compute_evaluation_metrics: 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 Scifinder Route. Nothing to install.
compute_evaluation_metrics 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 compute_evaluation_metrics 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 compute_evaluation_metrics. 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.
compute_evaluation_metrics is provided by the Scifinder Route MCP server (kettly1260/scifinder-route-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
