WHAT IT DOES

What paper_get_document does on Adrata

AI agents call paper_get_document to retrieve information from Adrata without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why paper_get_document is rated Low

Even though paper_get_document only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs paper_get_document safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Adrata, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For paper_get_document, this is the rule to start with:

paper_get_document Allowed

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

policy.json

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

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

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