velocity_24h

${count24h} ${context.capability.operation} operations in 24h

Part of the Stripe server.

velocity_24h is read-only, but an agent in a loop can still rack up calls and cost. PolicyLayer caps every call before it runs. Live in minutes.

AI agents call velocity_24h to retrieve information from Stripe without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.

Even though velocity_24h only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.

Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so velocity_24h only ever does what you allow.

What does the velocity_24h tool do? +

${count24h} ${context.capability.operation} operations in 24h. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Stripe MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on velocity_24h? +

Register the Stripe MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for velocity_24h: 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 Stripe. Nothing to install.

What risk level is velocity_24h? +

velocity_24h is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit velocity_24h? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the velocity_24h 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 velocity_24h completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for velocity_24h. 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 velocity_24h? +

velocity_24h is provided by the Stripe MCP server (stripe-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
