What subscribe_events does on Tenzro Ledger MCP
AI agents call subscribe_events to retrieve information from Tenzro Ledger MCP without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why subscribe_events is rated Low
Subscribing to blockchain events is fundamentally a data retrieval operation with no side effects. The tool watches for and returns matching events but does not alter blockchain state, execute code, move funds, or modify any data. It falls clearly under the Read category with low severity since event subscription cannot be misused to cause damage to systems or data.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Subscribe to real-time blockchain events matching a filter expression' — a read-only operation that retrieves event data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing transactions.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs subscribe_events 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 subscribe_events, this is the rule to start with:
subscribe_events is read-only, so it stays allowed. 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 subscribe_events call is checked against it from then on.
