Used to look up an NFT or Token by public key (32 byte base58 encoded address)
AI agents call getAsset to retrieve information from Solana MCP Demo without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a lookup/query operation on the Solana blockchain to retrieve information about an asset. It retrieves data without modifying, executing, or deleting anything. The tool name 'getAsset' and description 'look up' clearly indicate a Read category operation. Low severity because misuse would only expose or retrieve existing blockchain data that is already public on a blockchain ledger.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it is "used to look up" an NFT or Token, which is a retrieval operation with no side effects. The parameter is a public key address, a read-only query.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Used to look up an NFT or Token by public key (32 byte base58 encoded address). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Solana MCP Demo MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Solana MCP Demo MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for getAsset: 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 Solana MCP Demo. Nothing to install.
getAsset 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 getAsset 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 getAsset. 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.
getAsset is provided by the Solana MCP Demo MCP server (metaplex-foundation/das-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
