WHAT IT DOES

What get_apex_test_results does on Salesforce MCP Server

AI agents call get_apex_test_results to retrieve information from Salesforce MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

THE RISK

Low Risk

Why get_apex_test_results needs a policy

This is clearly a Read operation: it queries and retrieves information without side effects. Severity is medium rather than low because Apex test results can include stack traces, error messages, and code coverage data that might reveal sensitive information about application logic, data structures, or potential vulnerabilities if accessed by an unauthorized agent.

From the tool's definition Tool retrieves test results from a previous test run ('Retrieve results from a previous asynchronous Apex test run'). No modifications, deletions, or code execution occur—it only queries and returns data about existing test outcomes.

POLICY

How to control get_apex_test_results

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Salesforce MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_apex_test_results:

policy.json

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

get_apex_test_results is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register Salesforce MCP Server — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
