Get normalized CodingToolMetrics by aggregating usage, cost, and code analytics data for cross-tool comparison
AI agents call claude_code_get_normalized_metrics to retrieve information from Sage MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and aggregates pre-existing analytics and metrics data for comparison purposes. It performs no writes, deletions, code execution, or financial operations. The aggregation is a read-only computation over existing data. While cost data is mentioned, the tool only retrieves cost metrics, not moving money or creating financial obligations.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'get' and description states 'Get normalized CodingToolMetrics by aggregating usage, cost, and code analytics data' — pure retrieval and aggregation of existing metrics data with no modification, deletion, or execution.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access claude_code_get_normalized_metrics gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Sage MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for claude_code_get_normalized_metrics:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"claude_code_get_normalized_metrics": {}
}
}claude_code_get_normalized_metrics is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
Free to start. No card required.
Get normalized CodingToolMetrics by aggregating usage, cost, and code analytics data for cross-tool comparison. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Sage MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Sage MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for claude_code_get_normalized_metrics: 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 Sage MCP. Nothing to install.
claude_code_get_normalized_metrics 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 claude_code_get_normalized_metrics 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 claude_code_get_normalized_metrics. 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.
claude_code_get_normalized_metrics is provided by the Sage MCP server (sagemcp/sagemcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
