What evidence does on Asset Aware

AI agents call evidence to retrieve information from Asset Aware without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why evidence needs a policy

This tool appears to fetch or aggregate citation evidence from the knowledge graph and PDF assets without creating, modifying, executing external operations, or deleting data. The word 'entrypoint' implies it serves as a retrieval interface. While the description is somewhat terse, the broader server purpose (asset analysis and research) and naming convention are consistent with a Read operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'evidence' described as 'Consolidated citation evidence entrypoint' suggests retrieval and aggregation of existing citation data for medical research analysis.

Questions about evidence

How do I enforce a policy on evidence? +

Register the Asset Aware MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for evidence: 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 Asset Aware. Nothing to install.

Can I rate-limit evidence? +

How do I block evidence completely? +

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