get_x402_publishers 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 get_x402_publishers to retrieve information from TensorFeed 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 get_x402_publishers 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 get_x402_publishers only ever does what you allow.

What does the get_x402_publishers tool do? +

List x402-compliant publishers TensorFeed currently indexes. Each entry: domain, pay_to_wallets, first_seen, last_crawled, last_event_at, last_crawl_error. Publishers are auto-discovered daily via /.well-known/x402.json crawls. Use this to enumerate which publishers can then be queried in depth via premium_x402_publisher_receipts. Free, no input.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the TensorFeed MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on get_x402_publishers? +

Register the TensorFeed MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_x402_publishers: 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 TensorFeed. Nothing to install.

What risk level is get_x402_publishers? +

get_x402_publishers is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit get_x402_publishers? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_x402_publishers 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 get_x402_publishers completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_x402_publishers. 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 get_x402_publishers? +

get_x402_publishers is provided by the TensorFeed MCP server (https://mcp.tensorfeed.ai/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every TensorFeed tool call.
