Get recent daily metrics (last 7 days)
AI agents call get_metrics to retrieve information from Revenue Engine MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries aggregated metrics data from a defined time window without side effects. It performs a straightforward read operation similar to fetching a report or dashboard snapshot. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—misuse would only expose historical business metrics rather than enabling destructive, financial, or code execution risks.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_metrics' and description 'Get recent daily metrics (last 7 days)' indicate retrieval of historical data with no modification, deletion, or execution of external operations.

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_metrics 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_metrics. 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.
