Get high tide flooding daily likelihoods for a station
AI agents call get_high_tide_flooding_likelihoods to retrieve information from LocalTides 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 high tide flooding probability data from NOAA for a specified station. It performs no modifications, deletions, or external operations—purely a read operation querying existing data. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius: inaccurate results could inform poor water safety decisions, but cannot directly cause harm.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_high_tide_flooding_likelihoods' and description 'Get high tide flooding daily likelihoods for a station' indicate a data retrieval operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get high tide flooding daily likelihoods for a station. It is categorised as a Read tool in the LocalTides MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the LocalTides MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_high_tide_flooding_likelihoods: 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 LocalTides MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_high_tide_flooding_likelihoods 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_high_tide_flooding_likelihoods 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_high_tide_flooding_likelihoods. 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_high_tide_flooding_likelihoods is provided by the LocalTides MCP Server MCP server (ryancardin15/noaa-tidesandcurrents-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
