AI agents call get_basket to retrieve information from Food402 without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only retrieves and queries the current state of a shopping cart. It does not create, modify, delete, execute commands, or involve financial transactions. It is purely informational and has no blast radius if misused by an AI agent, as it cannot cause harm—it only returns data already owned by the user.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_basket' and description is 'Get current cart contents'. The verb 'Get' and the action of retrieving cart contents indicates a read-only operation with no modifications or side effects.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Food402, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_basket:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_basket": {}
}
} get_basket is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_basket 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_basket. 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.
get_basket is provided by the Food402 MCP server (rersozlu/food402). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Food402, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
