Get detailed account information for a Solana address
AI agents call getAccountInfo to retrieve information from Web3 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 blockchain account data without side effects. It queries existing information about a Solana address and returns details, which is characteristic of Read operations. The severity is low because reading public blockchain data poses minimal risk to the system or user assets.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'getAccountInfo' and description 'Get detailed account information for a Solana address' indicate a retrieval operation. The verb 'get' and lack of any modification, execution, or financial language confirm this is a read-only query.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access getAccountInfo gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Web3 MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for getAccountInfo:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"getAccountInfo": {}
}
}getAccountInfo is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Register the Web3 MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for getAccountInfo: 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 Web3 MCP Server. Nothing to install.
getAccountInfo 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 getAccountInfo 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 getAccountInfo. 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.
getAccountInfo is provided by the Web3 MCP Server MCP server (strangelove-ventures/web3-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
