What database_query does on Tenzro Ledger MCP
AI agents invoke database_query to trigger actions in Tenzro Ledger MCP. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
Why database_query is rated High
With no description available, I must infer from the tool name and server context. 'database_query' on a ledger/financial server (wallet, payments, staking, identity) could execute arbitrary queries including potentially destructive SQL. The sibling 'authorize_database_read' suggests this tool actually executes queries after authorization.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'database_query'; description is empty and uninformative.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs database_query safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Tenzro Ledger MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For database_query, this is the rule to start with:
database_query stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Tenzro Ledger MCP, apply this rule, and every database_query call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about database_query
database_query is a execute tool on the Tenzro Ledger MCP server. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Tenzro Ledger MCP MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the Tenzro Ledger MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for database_query: 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 Tenzro Ledger MCP. Nothing to install.
database_query is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the database_query 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 database_query. 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.
database_query is provided by the Tenzro Ledger MCP server (https://canton-mcp.tenzro.network/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
