search_tokens
AI agents call search_tokens to retrieve information from Aerodrome Swap MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Despite the empty description, the tool name and context within a swap/pricing API indicate this performs a query or search operation to retrieve token data. It does not build transactions (like 'build_swap'), modify state, delete data, or move money. This is consistent with other Read operations on the server.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'search_tokens' and its position among sibling tools that include read operations like 'get_pools', 'get_prices', 'get_tokens', and 'get_token_by_address' strongly suggest a retrieval function.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
search_tokens. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Aerodrome Swap MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Aerodrome Swap MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for search_tokens: 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 Aerodrome Swap MCP Server. Nothing to install.
search_tokens 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 search_tokens 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 search_tokens. 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.
search_tokens is provided by the Aerodrome Swap MCP Server MCP server (protagolabs/aerodrome-swap-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
