db_get_reference_codes
AI agents call db_get_reference_codes to retrieve information from Skyfly MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Based on naming convention and context within the Skyfly MCP Server—which is a data integration and querying service for aircraft tracking—this tool most likely retrieves reference code definitions or lookup tables (e.g., aircraft codes, status codes, or registry codes).
From the tool's definition Tool name 'db_get_reference_codes' suggests retrieving lookup or reference data; sibling tools include 'db_get_engine_info', 'db_get_model_info', 'db_get_stats', and 'db_lookup_*' which are all read-only query operations.

db_get_reference_codes 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 db_get_reference_codes 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 db_get_reference_codes. 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.
