AI agents call pestsentinel_get_zone_scores to retrieve information from Pest Sentinel — AI Pest Risk Intelligence without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.
Even though pestsentinel_get_zone_scores only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.
Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Get the current weekly pest risk scores for a specific zone. Returns scores for all 15 pest types (or a single pest type if specified) for the most recent week. Scores range from 0–100. Trend indicates direction vs. prior week. Pest types: rodents, mosquitoes, cockroaches, bedbugs, carpenter_ants, raccoons, squirrels, skunks, bats, groundhogs, opossums, wasps, termites, fire_ants, scorpions Args: - zone_id (string): The UUID of the zone (use pestsentinel_search_zones to find it) - pest_type (string, optional): Filter to a single pest type - response_format ('markdown' | 'json'): Output format (default: 'markdown') Returns: Current risk scores with trend, confidence, and risk drivers for the zone. Examples: - "What's the rodent risk in downtown Chicago?" → first search for zone, then get scores with pest_type='rodents' - "Show all pest scores for Miami Beach zone" → zone_id='<uuid>'. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Pest Sentinel — AI Pest Risk Intelligence MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Pest Sentinel — AI Pest Risk Intelligence MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for pestsentinel_get_zone_scores: 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 Pest Sentinel — AI Pest Risk Intelligence. Nothing to install.
pestsentinel_get_zone_scores 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 pestsentinel_get_zone_scores 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 pestsentinel_get_zone_scores. 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.
