AI agents call get_financials to retrieve information from Sahmk without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool follows the naming pattern and functional pattern of other read-only tools on this MCP server. It retrieves financial information rather than modifying, executing, or deleting data. Accessing publicly-available market financial data carries minimal security risk even if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_financials' indicates data retrieval. All sibling tools (get_quote, get_company, get_historical, get_market_summary, etc.) are read-only query operations retrieving public market data.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_financials gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Sahmk, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_financials:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_financials": {}
}
}get_financials is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

get_financials. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Sahmk MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Sahmk MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_financials: 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 Sahmk. Nothing to install.
get_financials 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_financials 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_financials. 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_financials is provided by the Sahmk MCP server (sahmk-sa/sahmk-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Sahmk, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
