Get combined protocol-wide stats across both simple and negrisk markets. Returns total markets, trades, volume, users, splits, merges, redemptions with per-type breakdown.
AI agents call get_global_stats to retrieve information from Limitless MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries on-chain data and returns aggregated statistics without side effects. It is purely informational and read-only, with no ability to modify state or trigger external actions. Severity is low as misuse would only expose market analytics data.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_global_stats' and description 'Get combined protocol-wide stats' indicate a data retrieval operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get combined protocol-wide stats across both simple and negrisk markets. Returns total markets, trades, volume, users, splits, merges, redemptions with per-type breakdown. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Limitless MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Limitless MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_global_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 Limitless MCP. Nothing to install.
get_global_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_global_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_global_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_global_stats is provided by the Limitless MCP server (paulieb14/limitless-subgraphs). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
