Get all application boxes
AI agents call api_algod_get_application_boxes to retrieve information from Sperax Ecosystem Crypto & DeFI MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a data retrieval operation (get) with no side effects. It queries application boxes from the Algorand blockchain, similar to a database read. No data is created, modified, deleted, or financial transactions are involved. The blast radius is minimal—worst case an agent learns blockchain state it could query anyway.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'api_algod_get_application_boxes' with description 'Get all application boxes' indicates a read-only query operation that retrieves application state data without modification or execution.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access api_algod_get_application_boxes gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Sperax Ecosystem Crypto & DeFI MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for api_algod_get_application_boxes:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"api_algod_get_application_boxes": {}
}
} api_algod_get_application_boxes is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
Free to start. No card required.
Get all application boxes. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Sperax Ecosystem Crypto & DeFI MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Sperax Ecosystem Crypto & DeFI MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for api_algod_get_application_boxes: 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 Sperax Ecosystem Crypto & DeFI MCP Server. Nothing to install.
api_algod_get_application_boxes 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 api_algod_get_application_boxes 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 api_algod_get_application_boxes. 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.
api_algod_get_application_boxes is provided by the Sperax Ecosystem Crypto & DeFI MCP Server MCP server (sperax/sperax-crypto-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Sperax Ecosystem Crypto & DeFI MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
