This API endpoint returns tax information for the instrument.
AI agents call GetTaxInfo to retrieve information from Twelve Data 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 financial metadata (tax information) about an instrument without modifying data, executing commands, or creating financial obligations. It is a read-only query operation with minimal blast radius if misused—an AI agent could only retrieve tax data it is authorized to access, causing no damage or unauthorized state changes.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'GetTaxInfo' and description 'returns tax information for the instrument' indicate data retrieval with no modification or side effects. The verb 'Get' and 'returns' confirm query/fetch semantics.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access GetTaxInfo gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Twelve Data MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for GetTaxInfo:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"GetTaxInfo": {}
}
}GetTaxInfo is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

This API endpoint returns tax information for the instrument. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Twelve Data MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Twelve Data MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for GetTaxInfo: 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 Twelve Data MCP Server. Nothing to install.
GetTaxInfo 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 GetTaxInfo 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 GetTaxInfo. 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.
GetTaxInfo is provided by the Twelve Data MCP Server MCP server (twelvedata/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
