get_asn_info
AI agents call get_asn_info to retrieve information from GeoIP MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves ASN (Autonomous System Number) metadata associated with IP addresses—a pure data lookup with no side effects. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute operations. Confidence is slightly reduced due to empty tool description, but the server's stated purpose and naming conventions provide sufficient context to classify with high confidence as a Read operation with low severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_asn_info' which retrieves Autonomous System Number information. Server description indicates it provides 'geographical information' and 'ASN details' with no mention of modification, deletion, or execution capabilities.

get_asn_info. It is categorised as a Read tool in the GeoIP MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the GeoIP MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_asn_info: 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 GeoIP MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_asn_info 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 get_asn_info 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 get_asn_info. 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.
get_asn_info is provided by the GeoIP MCP Server MCP server (mamorett/mcp_geoip2). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
