Get Beacon network statistics. Returns total agents (native + relay), active count, provider breakdown, and protocol health status.
AI agents call beacon_network_stats to retrieve information from RustChain + BoTTube 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 and returns network statistics (agent counts, provider breakdown, health status) without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a pure query/read operation with no side effects, placing it clearly in the Read category with low severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'beacon_network_stats' and description 'Get Beacon network statistics. Returns total agents (native + relay), active count, provider breakdown, and protocol health status.' - uses 'Get' verb indicating retrieval of data with no modification or…
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access beacon_network_stats gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and RustChain + BoTTube MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for beacon_network_stats:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"beacon_network_stats": {}
}
}beacon_network_stats is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get Beacon network statistics. Returns total agents (native + relay), active count, provider breakdown, and protocol health status. It is categorised as a Read tool in the RustChain + BoTTube MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the RustChain + BoTTube MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for beacon_network_stats: 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 RustChain + BoTTube MCP Server. Nothing to install.
beacon_network_stats 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 beacon_network_stats 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 beacon_network_stats. 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.
beacon_network_stats is provided by the RustChain + BoTTube MCP Server MCP server (scottcjn/rustchain-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
