Why get_query_results needs a policy

Based on the tool name following typical 'get' conventions for read operations, this tool appears to retrieve query results without modifying or deleting data. However, confidence is moderate due to the completely empty description, which prevents verification of actual behavior (e.g., whether it executes queries with side effects or merely fetches results).

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_query_results' indicates a query result retrieval operation. The description is empty, but the name itself strongly suggests a data retrieval function with no side effects.

How to control get_query_results

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Amazon Location Service MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_query_results:

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

get_query_results 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 Location Service 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.
