The rule that runs get_webhook_message safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and GuildControl MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_webhook_message, this is the rule to start with:
get_webhook_message 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 GuildControl MCP, apply this rule, and every get_webhook_message call is checked against it from then on.

It is categorised as a Read tool in the GuildControl MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
