Get AI-extracted data from SEC filings for a company. Signal8 extracts 13 types of data
AI agents call get_extractions to retrieve information from Signal8 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 queries financial data derived from SEC filings. It performs no side effects, does not modify data, execute code, delete information, or move money. The sibling tools (get_analyst_consensus, get_analyst_coverage, get_analyst_estimates, etc.) are all retrieval-oriented Read operations, consistent with this classification.

Register the Signal8 MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_extractions: 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 Signal8 MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_extractions 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_extractions 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_extractions. 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.
