Calculate aggregated statistics for activities
AI agents call get_stats to retrieve information from OpenStride MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool retrieves and computes aggregated statistics from existing activities within the OpenStride training dataset. This is a non-destructive read operation that has no side effects on data. It does not create, modify, delete, execute code, or incur financial obligations. The low severity reflects minimal risk from misuse—an AI agent cannot cause harm by over-fetching statistics.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_stats' and description 'Calculate aggregated statistics for activities' indicate data retrieval and analysis without modification.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Calculate aggregated statistics for activities. It is categorised as a Read tool in the OpenStride MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the OpenStride MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_stats: 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 OpenStride MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_stats 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_stats 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_stats. 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_stats is provided by the OpenStride MCP Server MCP server (openstride/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
