lookup_ens_address

Lookup the ENS name for an Ethereum address (reverse resolution)

Part of the Kosyak Evm MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

AI agents call lookup_ens_address to retrieve information from Kosyak Evm without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.

Even though lookup_ens_address only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.

Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

What does the lookup_ens_address tool do? +

Lookup the ENS name for an Ethereum address (reverse resolution). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Kosyak Evm MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on lookup_ens_address? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for lookup_ens_address. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Kosyak Evm MCP server.

What risk level is lookup_ens_address? +

lookup_ens_address is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit lookup_ens_address? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the lookup_ens_address rule in your Intercept 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.

How do I block lookup_ens_address completely? +

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for lookup_ens_address. 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.

What MCP server provides lookup_ens_address? +

lookup_ens_address is provided by the Kosyak Evm MCP server (kosyak-evm-mcp-server). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
