What gql_post does on Thinkific MCP Server
AI agents call gql_post to retrieve information from Thinkific MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why gql_post is rated Low
The tool retrieves a specific post or reply by its ID using GraphQL. Despite the name 'gql_post' suggesting a POST HTTP method (common for GraphQL queries), the description clearly states it is a read/find operation with no side effects.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs gql_post safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Thinkific MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For gql_post, this is the rule to start with:
gql_post 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 Thinkific MCP Server, apply this rule, and every gql_post call is checked against it from then on.
