What get_chains does on UniVoucher MCP Server

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

Why get_chains needs a policy

This tool performs a simple informational lookup with no side effects. It returns metadata about supported blockchains (likely chain IDs, names, RPC endpoints, or similar) without modifying state, executing transactions, or committing financial obligations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal — an attacker could only enumerate supported chains, which is typically public information in a decentralized protocol.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_chains' and description states 'Get information about supported chains' — this is a pure query operation that retrieves static or near-static configuration data about blockchain networks supported by the protocol.
