Get Near Earth Objects (asteroids) passing close to Earth.
AI agents call nasa_neo to retrieve information from Mcp Everything without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves astronomical data about asteroids from a public NASA API. It has no side effects, cannot modify data, execute code, delete records, or transfer funds. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only request excessive data or spam the API, which is a resource concern rather than a security risk. This is a straightforward read operation.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'nasa_neo' and description 'Get Near Earth Objects (asteroids) passing close to Earth' indicate a data retrieval operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get Near Earth Objects (asteroids) passing close to Earth. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp Everything MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Mcp Everything MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for nasa_neo: 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 Mcp Everything. Nothing to install.
nasa_neo 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 nasa_neo 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 nasa_neo. 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.
nasa_neo is provided by the Mcp Everything MCP server (wellix260/mcp-everything). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
