Gibt die Höhe über Meer (m ü. M.) an einer WGS84-Koordinate zurück.
AI agents call swisstopo_get_height to retrieve information from Pypi:swisstopo without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves public geodetic data (elevation) based on coordinates. It performs a read-only query against Swisstopo APIs with no side effects, no code execution, and no data modification. The operation is informational only, making it a straightforward Read category tool with low severity risk.

Gibt die Höhe über Meer (m ü. M.) an einer WGS84-Koordinate zurück. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Pypi:swisstopo MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Pypi:swisstopo MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for swisstopo_get_height: 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 Pypi:swisstopo. Nothing to install.
swisstopo_get_height 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 swisstopo_get_height 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 swisstopo_get_height. 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.
swisstopo_get_height is provided by the Pypi:swisstopo MCP server (malkreide/swisstopo-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
