AI agents call deal_feed to retrieve information from Llama without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool retrieves a chronologically-sorted feed of contributions to a deal. This is a read-only operation that queries data with no reversible or irreversible modifications, no code execution, and no financial transactions. The description emphasizes viewing a stream rather than modifying it. Severity is low because reading deal contribution data poses minimal risk even if misused by an agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'deal_feed' and description 'unified, time-sorted stream of every contribution to a deal' indicate retrieval and querying of existing deal data without modification or side effects.

The unified, time-sorted stream of every contribution to a deal —. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Llama MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Llama MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for deal_feed: 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 Llama. Nothing to install.
deal_feed 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 deal_feed 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 deal_feed. 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.
deal_feed is provided by the Llama MCP server (llama-ventures/llama-cli). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
deal_feed is one line of Llama's registry record.
The record carries the whole server: verified identity, auth posture, risk grade, every tool classified, recommended policy — re-checked continuously.
