Search for players by name. Returns price, form, and basic stats.
AI agents call search_players to retrieve information from FPL MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool performs a straightforward search and returns informational data (player statistics, pricing, form metrics). No data is created, modified, deleted, or financial operations are performed. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only retrieve publicly available or user-accessible player information, which does not constitute a security or operational risk.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Search for players by name. Returns price, form, and basic stats.' This is a retrieval operation that queries data without modification or side effects.

Search for players by name. Returns price, form, and basic stats. It is categorised as a Read tool in the FPL MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the FPL MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for search_players: 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 FPL MCP Server. Nothing to install.
search_players 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 search_players 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 search_players. 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.
search_players is provided by the FPL MCP Server MCP server (lewis-king/fpl-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
