Get current statistics about the Qwery index — total listings, verified listings, and number of categories.
AI agents call stats to retrieve information from Qwery 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 aggregate index metadata without any side effects. It is purely informational and read-only, presenting summary statistics about the database. No data is created, modified, deleted, or executed. Blast radius is minimal—misuse would only return public index counts, posing no security risk.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get current statistics about the Qwery index — total listings, verified listings, and number of categories. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Qwery MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Qwery MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for stats: 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 Qwery MCP Server. Nothing to install.
stats 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 stats 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 stats. 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.
stats is provided by the Qwery MCP Server MCP server (kingroyalabstergo-agent/qwery-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
