# get_library_symbol_reference A read tool on the Altium-MCP-Suite MCP server. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `get_library_symbol_reference`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/get-library-symbol-reference ## Facts - Tool: `get_library_symbol_reference` - Server: Altium-MCP-Suite (`M-R-Abedini/Altium-MCP-Suite`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite.md - Homepage: https://github.com/M-R-Abedini/Altium-MCP-Suite - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "get_library_symbol_reference", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why get_library_symbol_reference is rated Low No description provided, but the tool name 'get_library_symbol_reference' follows the pattern of query/read operations that retrieve symbol reference data from an Altium library without modifying or deleting anything. Even if it returns information used in design, it performs no side effects on the project state. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_library_symbol_reference' indicates a retrieval operation typical of Read operations. The description is empty, limiting certainty, but the name pattern matches data retrieval verbs like 'get'." ## Use case AI agents call get_library_symbol_reference to retrieve information from Altium-MCP-Suite without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Altium-MCP-Suite: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "get_library_symbol_reference": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on Altium-MCP-Suite (816) - `easyeda_clear_findings` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/easyeda-clear-findings.md - `easyeda_clear_routing` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/easyeda-clear-routing.md - `easyeda_clear_schematic_selection` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/easyeda-clear-schematic-selection.md - `easyeda_clear_selection` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/easyeda-clear-selection.md - `easyeda_close_document` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/easyeda-close-document.md - `easyeda_delete_device` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/easyeda-delete-device.md - `easyeda_delete_footprint` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/easyeda-delete-footprint.md - `easyeda_delete_panel` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/easyeda-delete-panel.md - `easyeda_delete_pcb` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/easyeda-delete-pcb.md - `easyeda_delete_primitives` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/easyeda-delete-primitives.md - `easyeda_delete_project` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/easyeda-delete-project.md - `easyeda_delete_schematic` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/easyeda-delete-schematic.md - `easyeda_delete_schematic_page` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/easyeda-delete-schematic-page.md - `easyeda_delete_schematic_primitives` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/easyeda-delete-schematic-primitives.md - `easyeda_delete_symbol` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/easyeda-delete-symbol.md - `kicad_delete_component` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/kicad-delete-component.md - `lib_clear_source_library` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/lib-clear-source-library.md - `lib_delete_component` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/lib-delete-component.md - `lib_delete_footprint` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/lib-delete-footprint.md - `lib_delete_footprint_primitives` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/lib-delete-footprint-primitives.md - `lib_remove_model` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/lib-remove-model.md - `lib_uninstall_library` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/lib-uninstall-library.md - `obj_batch_delete` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/obj-batch-delete.md - `obj_delete` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/obj-delete.md - `pcb_clear_source_footprint_library` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/pcb-clear-source-footprint-library.md - `pcb_delete_design_rule` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/pcb-delete-design-rule.md - `pcb_delete_invalid_objects` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/pcb-delete-invalid-objects.md - `pcb_delete_net` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/pcb-delete-net.md - `pcb_delete_object` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/pcb-delete-object.md - `pcb_remove_layer` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/pcb-remove-layer.md - …and 786 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
