get-resource-policy
AI agents call get-resource-policy to retrieve information from Amazon MQ MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The naming convention 'get-' strongly indicates a retrieval operation. Although the description is empty (lowering confidence), the tool appears designed to fetch an existing resource policy from an Amazon MQ broker without side effects. This aligns with Read category behavior—querying data with no state changes.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get-resource-policy' follows the 'get-*' pattern typical of read operations that retrieve resource attributes/configurations without modification.

get-resource-policy. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Amazon MQ MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Amazon MQ MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get-resource-policy: 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 MQ MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get-resource-policy 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-resource-policy 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-resource-policy. 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-resource-policy is provided by the Amazon MQ MCP Server MCP server (awslabs.amazon-mq-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
