get_query_results
AI agents call get_query_results to retrieve information from Amazon ElastiCache Memcached MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The name indicates a read-only operation retrieving results from a prior query. Without a description, confidence is reduced, but the naming pattern strongly suggests passive data retrieval rather than creation, modification, or deletion. Classified as Read with low severity due to likely limited blast radius from retrieving cached query results.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_query_results' suggests retrieval of query outputs with no modification capability. No description provided to verify side effects.

get_query_results. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Amazon ElastiCache Memcached MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Amazon ElastiCache Memcached MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_query_results: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Amazon ElastiCache Memcached MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_query_results is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_query_results rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_query_results. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
get_query_results is provided by the Amazon ElastiCache Memcached MCP Server MCP server (awslabs.memcached-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
