Check current usage, remaining limits, plan, and quota breakdown for the caller. FREE TO CALL — never counts against your quota, never blocked by it. Use this proactively when the user asks about usage or seems near limits.
AI agents call quota to retrieve information from ThinAir Geo without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only queries and returns quota information about the caller's account usage. It performs no modifications, does not execute operations, and has no destructive or financial impact. The read-only query operation with informational output is the least risky category. Low severity due to limited sensitive data exposure (quota information is typically non-sensitive account metadata).
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Check current usage, remaining limits, plan, and quota breakdown' — purely retrieves quota and usage metrics with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Check current usage, remaining limits, plan, and quota breakdown for the caller. FREE TO CALL — never counts against your quota, never blocked by it. Use this proactively when the user asks about usage or seems near limits. It is categorised as a Read tool in the ThinAir Geo MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the ThinAir Geo MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for quota: 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 ThinAir Geo. Nothing to install.
quota 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 quota 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 quota. 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.
quota is provided by the ThinAir Geo MCP server (thinairtelematics/thinair-geo). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
