rustchain_stats

Get RustChain network statistics. Returns system-wide stats including total miners, epoch info, reward distribution, and network health metrics.

How to control rustchain_stats ↓

AI agents call rustchain_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.

Low Risk

This tool retrieves and returns information about blockchain network statistics. It performs no state changes, does not execute code or commands, does not modify data, and does not involve financial transactions. It is a straightforward data query operation with minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Get[s] RustChain network statistics' and 'Returns system-wide stats including total miners, epoch info, reward distribution, and network health metrics.' These are read-only queries with no modification, deletion, or execution of…

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access rustchain_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 rustchain_stats:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "rustchain_stats": {}
  }
}

rustchain_stats is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register RustChain + BoTTube MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

What does the rustchain_stats tool do? +

Get RustChain network statistics. Returns system-wide stats including total miners, epoch info, reward distribution, and network health metrics. It is categorised as a Read tool in the RustChain + BoTTube MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on rustchain_stats? +

Register the RustChain + BoTTube MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for rustchain_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.

What risk level is rustchain_stats? +

rustchain_stats is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit rustchain_stats? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the rustchain_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.

How do I block rustchain_stats completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for rustchain_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.

What MCP server provides rustchain_stats? +

rustchain_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.

Enforce policy on every RustChain + BoTTube MCP Server tool call.
