get_nonce

What get_nonce does on Waiaas

AI agents call get_nonce to retrieve information from Waiaas without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why get_nonce is rated Low

Nonce retrieval is a fundamental read operation in blockchain contexts—it queries transaction state without modifying it. Even in a wallet context, reading nonce values is necessary for constructing transactions but does not itself execute transfers, approve actions, or commit financial transactions. The empty description lowers confidence slightly, but the function name strongly indicates a harmless read operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_nonce' suggests retrieval of a nonce value (a cryptographic counter used in blockchain transactions). The empty description prevents definitive classification, but nonce retrieval is a read-only operation with no side effects.

The rule that runs get_nonce safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Waiaas, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_nonce, this is the rule to start with:

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_nonce": {}
  }
}
