Get detailed information about a specific Bitcoin address, including transaction history and UTXO details. Use this when you need comprehensive data about an address.
AI agents call address_get to retrieve information from Satstream MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries immutable blockchain data and returns information without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward read operation analogous to a GET request against public blockchain data. The context of sibling tools (all address_*_get, block_*_get patterns) confirms this is part of a read-only data query API.
From the tool's definition Tool retrieves 'detailed information about a specific Bitcoin address, including transaction history and UTXO details' — purely query/retrieval operations with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get detailed information about a specific Bitcoin address, including transaction history and UTXO details. Use this when you need comprehensive data about an address. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Satstream MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Satstream MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for address_get: 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 Satstream MCP Server. Nothing to install.
address_get 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 address_get 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 address_get. 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.
address_get is provided by the Satstream MCP Server MCP server (satstream/ss-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
