Why identity_get_token_vault needs a policy

The tool name indicates fetching/getting tokens from a vault, which is a data retrieval action (Read category). Tokens are sensitive authentication artifacts, so misuse could enable unauthorized access elsewhere, justifying high severity. The empty description reduces confidence—if this tool permits modification or creation of tokens, it could be Write or Execute instead.

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

identity_get_token_vault 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.
