Get macroeconomic forecast for interest rates and bond yield indicators.
AI agents call forecast_rates to retrieve information from MoneyChoice without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves forecasted macroeconomic data (interest rates and bond yields) without creating, modifying, executing code, deleting data, or moving money. It is a read-only data retrieval operation. While forecasts could inform financial decisions, the tool itself only provides data; it does not execute trades, move funds, or trigger financial transactions.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'forecast_rates' and description states 'Get macroeconomic forecast for interest rates and bond yield indicators.' The verb 'Get' indicates data retrieval with no modification or execution of external operations.

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

forecast_rates 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 forecast_rates 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 forecast_rates. 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.
forecast_rates is provided by the MoneyChoice MCP server (prmail/moneychoice_mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
