Get the current transactions per second (TPS) on Solana
AI agents call get_tps to retrieve information from Solana MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a simple data retrieval operation (Get) to obtain network performance metrics (TPS). It has no side effects, cannot modify any state, cannot execute code or transactions, and poses minimal risk if misused by an AI agent. It is purely informational.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_tps' and description 'Get the current transactions per second (TPS) on Solana' indicate a read-only query operation that retrieves network metrics without modifying state or executing transactions.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get the current transactions per second (TPS) on Solana. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Solana MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Solana MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_tps: 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 Solana MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_tps 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 get_tps 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 get_tps. 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.
get_tps is provided by the Solana MCP Server MCP server (visioneth/solana-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
