Retrieve detailed information about a specific Nano account, including balance (in nano and raw units), representative, and frontier block.
AI agents call nano_account_info to retrieve information from Nano Currency MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only queries and returns account information (balance, representative, frontier block) without modifying state, executing code, or moving funds. It is a straightforward read operation on blockchain account data. The low severity reflects minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent—the worst outcome is information disclosure of public blockchain data.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'nano_account_info' and description explicitly states 'Retrieve detailed information about a specific Nano account, including balance (in nano and raw units), representative, and frontier block.' The verb 'retrieve' and the read-only nature of…
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access nano_account_info gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Nano Currency MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for nano_account_info:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"nano_account_info": {}
}
}nano_account_info is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Retrieve detailed information about a specific Nano account, including balance (in nano and raw units), representative, and frontier block. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Nano Currency MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Nano Currency MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for nano_account_info: 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 Nano Currency MCP Server. Nothing to install.
nano_account_info 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 nano_account_info 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 nano_account_info. 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.
nano_account_info is provided by the Nano Currency MCP Server MCP server (kilkelly/nano-currency-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Nano Currency MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
