What project_info does on Claude C2
AI agents call project_info 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.
Why project_info is rated Low
This tool retrieves project metadata and codebase information without side effects. However, severity is elevated to 'medium' rather than 'low' because: (1) complete codebase knowledge could expose sensitive algorithms, credentials, or architecture details that aid adversaries, and (2) the sibling tool environment includes security-bypassing tools (amsi_bypass, bypassuac, browser_creds, defender_exclude) indicating…
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get complete project structure, architecture, and codebase knowledge' - retrieves information about codebase without modifying it. Name 'project_info' and verb 'Get' indicate data retrieval only.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs project_info 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 project_info, this is the rule to start with:
project_info 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 project_info call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about project_info
Get complete project structure, architecture, and codebase knowledge for making modifications. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Claude C2 MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Claude C2 MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for project_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 Claude C2. Nothing to install.
project_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 project_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 project_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.
project_info is provided by the Claude C2 MCP server (0xyg3n/claude-c2). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
