Browse detected technologies. Without a slug, returns the top 100 technologies by company count. With a slug, returns companies using that specific technology.
AI agents call get_technologies to retrieve information from AgentData MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries technology data from the company intelligence platform. It has no side effects—it neither creates, modifies, deletes, executes code, nor moves money. The operation is a straightforward read-only query that returns either aggregated technology lists or filtered company data based on a technology parameter.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Browse detected technologies' and 'returns' data about technologies and companies using them. The verbs 'browse' and 'returns' indicate data retrieval with no modification or deletion.

Register the AgentData MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_technologies: 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 AgentData MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_technologies 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_technologies 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.
