How to control get_pricing ↓

AI agents call get_pricing to retrieve information from Fal Ai MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

This tool queries and retrieves pricing information only. It is informational, read-only, and has no capability to generate content, modify data, delete anything, or execute operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—at worst, an agent could observe pricing but cannot interact with financial systems or resources. It is clearly a Read operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_pricing' and description 'Get pricing information for Fal.ai models. Returns cost per unit (image/video/second) in USD.' indicate this retrieves pricing data with no side effects or modifications.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_pricing gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Fal Ai MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_pricing:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_pricing": {}
  }
}

get_pricing is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Fal Ai MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
