AI agents call identify_asset to retrieve information from UluVoiMCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The `identify_asset` tool performs a read-only lookup of asset metadata by ID. It retrieves information from the semantic layer without altering, creating, or deleting any data. This is a standard data query operation with no side effects, consistent with other Read tools on this server like `resolve_name` and `get_protocol`.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'returns name, symbol, type, protocol, and category' — a retrieval operation that queries and returns existing blockchain data without modification.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Identify a Voi asset by ID — returns name, symbol, type, protocol, and category if known. It is categorised as a Read tool in the UluVoiMCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the UluVoi MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for identify_asset: 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 UluVoiMCP. Nothing to install.
identify_asset 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 identify_asset 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 identify_asset. 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.
identify_asset is provided by the UluVoi MCP server (maidtoshelly/uluvoimcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
