Why GetAHORun needs a policy

The tool name 'Get' is characteristic of read-only retrieval operations with no side effects. However, confidence is reduced because the description is empty and we cannot verify the actual behavior—GetAHORun could theoretically execute an AHO (Amazon Health Omics) run if the context differs from typical naming conventions.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'GetAHORun' suggests retrieval of a run object or status, consistent with a 'Get' operation. No description provided to confirm capability.

How to control GetAHORun

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for GetAHORun:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "GetAHORun": {}
  }
}

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

  1. Create a free account and register Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base Retrieval MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
