What netinfo does on Claude C2
AI agents call netinfo to retrieve information from Claude C2 without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

It is a read-only information gathering operation with no side effects. The automatic client selection does not elevate the risk category.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs netinfo safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Claude C2, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For netinfo, this is the rule to start with:
netinfo is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Claude C2, apply this rule, and every netinfo call is checked against it from then on.
