Retrieve probabilistic seismic hazard assessment for a location
AI agents call get-seismic-hazard to retrieve information from Comprehensive Earthquake Monitoring MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves pre-computed probabilistic seismic hazard assessment information for a given location. It is a query operation that reads existing hazard data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. The output is informational only, used for risk analysis and planning. Even if misused by an AI agent, it cannot cause harm—it merely returns assessment data.
From the tool's definition Tool name includes 'get' and description uses 'Retrieve', both indicating data retrieval with no modification or side effects. Returns assessment data for a specified location.

Retrieve probabilistic seismic hazard assessment for a location. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Comprehensive Earthquake Monitoring MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Comprehensive Earthquake Monitoring MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get-seismic-hazard: 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 Comprehensive Earthquake Monitoring MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get-seismic-hazard 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 get-seismic-hazard 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-seismic-hazard. 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-seismic-hazard is provided by the Comprehensive Earthquake Monitoring MCP Server MCP server (ruby0606/mcp-earthquake-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
