Get detailed information about a specific node.
AI agents call omniwire_node_info to retrieve information from OmniWire without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves metadata about a node in the distributed infrastructure. 'Get detailed information' is a read-only operation that queries state without modifying, deleting, or executing anything. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could gather reconnaissance data about the infrastructure but cannot directly cause harm through this tool alone.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'omniwire_node_info' and description 'Get detailed information about a specific node' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no side effects.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access omniwire_node_info gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and OmniWire, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for omniwire_node_info:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"omniwire_node_info": {}
}
} omniwire_node_info is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get detailed information about a specific node. It is categorised as a Read tool in the OmniWire MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the OmniWire MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for omniwire_node_info: 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 OmniWire. Nothing to install.
omniwire_node_info 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 omniwire_node_info 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 omniwire_node_info. 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.
omniwire_node_info is provided by the OmniWire MCP server (voidchecksum/omniwire). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from OmniWire, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
