A tool to calculate quantiles of a collection
AI agents call quantile_calculator to retrieve information from JeffersonStats without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The quantile_calculator performs a read-only statistical operation on provided data. Quantile calculation is a pure mathematical transformation that returns computed values without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing arbitrary code.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'calculate[s] quantiles of a collection' — a statistical computation that retrieves and processes data without modifying or deleting it.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
A tool to calculate quantiles of a collection. It is categorised as a Read tool in the JeffersonStats MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the JeffersonStats MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for quantile_calculator: 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 JeffersonStats. Nothing to install.
quantile_calculator 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 quantile_calculator 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 quantile_calculator. 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.
quantile_calculator is provided by the JeffersonStats MCP server (sharabhshukla/jeffersonstatsmcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
