What proj_get_nets does on Altium-MCP-Suite
AI agents call proj_get_nets 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.
Why proj_get_nets is rated Low
This tool retrieves project net data without modifying state. The 'get' verb and project inspection context indicate a read-only operation. Confidence is reduced from 0.85 to 0.75 due to empty description, but the naming pattern relative to sibling tools strongly suggests read-only semantics. No write, execute, financial, or destructive implications evident.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'proj_get_nets' follows the read-pattern convention (get_*) and retrieves nets from a project. The 'proj_' namespace indicates project inspection.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs proj_get_nets safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Altium-MCP-Suite, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For proj_get_nets, this is the rule to start with:
proj_get_nets is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Altium-MCP-Suite, apply this rule, and every proj_get_nets call is checked against it from then on.
