AI agents call score_ai_risk to retrieve information from Scorton without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool computes and returns a risk score by analyzing inputs (eval quality, criticality, compliance exposure). It reads/evaluates data and produces a score without modifying state, executing code, or performing financial transactions. Severity is medium because misuse could produce misleading risk assessments that influence security decisions in financial workflows.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Score AI system risk based on eval quality, criticality, and compliance exposure. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Scorton MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Scorton MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for score_ai_risk: 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 Scorton. Nothing to install.
score_ai_risk 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 score_ai_risk 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 score_ai_risk. 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.
score_ai_risk is provided by the Scorton MCP server (yojedesign/scorton-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
