Top DeFi protocols ranked by total value locked via DeFiLlama
AI agents call get_top_protocols to retrieve information from Agenti without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and ranks publicly available DeFi protocol data from an external source (DeFiLlama). It performs no state modifications, does not execute code or commands, does not delete data, and does not move funds. The severity is low because the tool only reads public financial data without the ability to influence markets or user accounts.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_top_protocols' and description 'Top DeFi protocols ranked by total value locked via DeFiLlama' indicates data retrieval/querying of public DeFi protocol rankings with no modification, execution, or financial transaction capability.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_top_protocols gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Agenti, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_top_protocols:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_top_protocols": {}
}
}get_top_protocols is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Top DeFi protocols ranked by total value locked via DeFiLlama. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Agenti MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Agenti MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_top_protocols: 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 Agenti. Nothing to install.
get_top_protocols 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_top_protocols 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_top_protocols. 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_top_protocols is provided by the Agenti MCP server (nirholas/agenti). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
