Get on-chain ASA (Algorand Standard Asset) metadata: name, symbol, decimals, total supply, creator.
AI agents call get_asset_info to retrieve information from Tinyman MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only queries immutable on-chain metadata about Algorand Standard Assets. It performs a read-only operation with no ability to modify data, execute transactions, or trigger external state changes. The metadata returned is already public and part of the blockchain's state. This is a low-severity read operation typical of blockchain explorers.
From the tool's definition Tool retrieves on-chain ASA metadata (name, symbol, decimals, total supply, creator) with no modification or side effects. Descriptive verbs: 'Get', 'retrieves'.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get on-chain ASA (Algorand Standard Asset) metadata: name, symbol, decimals, total supply, creator. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Tinyman MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Tinyman MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_asset_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 Tinyman MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_asset_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_asset_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_asset_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_asset_info is provided by the Tinyman MCP Server MCP server (nautilusoss/tinymanmcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
