RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs get_transaction safely

get_transaction Allowed

get_transaction is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_transaction": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Nitrostack, apply this rule, and every get_transaction call is checked against it from then on.
