What export_programs does on Businys
AI agents call export_programs to retrieve information from Businys without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why export_programs is rated Low
This tool reads and exports data in CSV format. It retrieves existing program records without modifying, deleting, or executing anything. The blast radius if misused is low — it may expose data but causes no side effects.
From the tool's definition Export all programs as CSV
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs export_programs safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Businys, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For export_programs, this is the rule to start with:
export_programs is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Businys, apply this rule, and every export_programs call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about export_programs
Export all programs as CSV. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Businys MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Businys MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for export_programs: 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 Businys. Nothing to install.
export_programs 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 export_programs 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 export_programs. 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.
export_programs is provided by the Businys MCP server (@businys/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
