Check browser connection, page state, and server status
AI agents call ira_health to retrieve information from IRA-RESEARCHER without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs health checks and status monitoring—pure information retrieval with no side effects, state changes, or external operations. It falls clearly into the Read category as the least severe risk level.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'ira_health' and description 'Check browser connection, page state, and server status' indicate a diagnostic query function that retrieves status information without modifying, executing, or deleting anything.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Check browser connection, page state, and server status. It is categorised as a Read tool in the IRA-RESEARCHER MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the IRA-RESEARCHER MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for ira_health: 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 IRA-RESEARCHER. Nothing to install.
ira_health 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 ira_health 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 ira_health. 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.
ira_health is provided by the IRA-RESEARCHER MCP server (neuralnexustech/ira-researcher). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
