Why fetch_assets needs a policy

The name 'fetch_assets' follows standard naming conventions for read operations (fetch, get, retrieve). Within a CMS context, fetching assets means querying and returning existing asset metadata or content without modification. Even though the description is uninformative, the sibling tools include other read operations and the tool name provides sufficient evidence.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'fetch_assets' indicates retrieval of asset data. The description is empty, but the name and context (Storyblok CMS asset handling) strongly suggest a data retrieval operation with no side effects.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access fetch_assets gives an agent:

How to control fetch_assets

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

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

fetch_assets 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 Storyblok 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.
