Get email delivery statistics for the last N days. Args: days: Number of days to look back (default 7).
AI agents call sendgrid_get_stats to retrieve information from autoMate without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries email statistics from SendGrid without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward read operation on historical metadata about email deliveries. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker could only access statistics data that already exists, not compromise email accounts, send emails, or modify configurations.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'sendgrid_get_stats' and description 'Get email delivery statistics' indicates data retrieval with no modification or side effects.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and autoMate, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for sendgrid_get_stats:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"sendgrid_get_stats": {}
}
}sendgrid_get_stats is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get email delivery statistics for the last N days. Args: days: Number of days to look back (default 7). It is categorised as a Read tool in the autoMate MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the autoMate MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for sendgrid_get_stats: 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 autoMate. Nothing to install.
sendgrid_get_stats 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 sendgrid_get_stats 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 sendgrid_get_stats. 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.
sendgrid_get_stats is provided by the autoMate MCP server (yuruotong1/automate). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
