AI agents call get_trial_user_attrs to retrieve information from Optuna 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 metadata attributes from an existing trial in an Optuna optimization study. It performs no modifications, deletions, or external operations—it simply queries and returns data. The blast radius of misuse is minimal, as reading trial attributes poses no risk to data integrity, financial systems, or external services.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_trial_user_attrs' and description 'Get user attributes in a trial' indicate a retrieval operation.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Optuna MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_trial_user_attrs:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_trial_user_attrs": {}
}
}get_trial_user_attrs is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_trial_user_attrs 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_trial_user_attrs. 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_trial_user_attrs is provided by the Optuna MCP Server MCP server (optuna/optuna-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
