# get_pcb_layer_stackup Get the detailed layer stackup information from the current Altium PCB including Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `get_pcb_layer_stackup`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/get-pcb-layer-stackup ## Facts - Tool: `get_pcb_layer_stackup` - 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_pcb_layer_stackup", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why get_pcb_layer_stackup is rated Low This tool queries and retrieves PCB layer stackup configuration details from an Altium project without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It is a read-only data retrieval function with no side effects, fitting the Read category. The severity is low because accessing layer stackup information poses minimal risk—it cannot damage designs, execute arbitrary code, or cause destructive changes. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_pcb_layer_stackup' and description 'Get the detailed layer stackup information' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification of data." ## Use case AI agents call get_pcb_layer_stackup 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_pcb_layer_stackup": {} } } ``` ## 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.
