WHAT IT DOES

What gql_user does on Thinkific MCP Server

AI agents call gql_user 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.

RISK

Why gql_user is rated Low

This tool performs a simple lookup query to fetch a user record by ID. It has no side effects, does not modify data, execute commands, or affect financial systems. It is a straightforward read operation, with minimal blast radius even if misused by an AI agent (at worst, it could retrieve unauthorized user data, but cannot alter or delete records).

From the tool's definition The tool "Returns a User by their global ID (gid)" and the descriptor "GraphQL" indicate a retrieval operation that queries and retrieves user data without modifying it.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs gql_user 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_user, this is the rule to start with:

gql_user Allowed

gql_user is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "gql_user": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Thinkific MCP Server, apply this rule, and every gql_user call is checked against it from then on.
