# get_server_status Get the current status of the Altium MCP server Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `get_server_status`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/altium-mcp-suite/get-server-status ## Facts - Tool: `get_server_status` - 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_server_status", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why get_server_status is rated Low This tool retrieves server status information without side effects. It is a simple read operation that queries the current state of the Altium MCP server. There is no data modification, command execution, or destructive capability. The blast radius is minimal—an AI agent misusing this tool would only obtain status information about the server. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_server_status' and description 'Get the current status of the Altium MCP server' indicate a status query operation with no modification, creation, deletion, or execution of external operations." ## Use case AI agents call get_server_status 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_server_status": {} } } ``` ## 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.
