Why get_policy_info needs a policy

This tool queries and returns information about blockchain policies without side effects. While it operates on a financial blockchain (Tempo stablecoin payments), the tool itself only reads data and does not move funds, execute transactions, or modify state. It poses minimal risk as an informational query.

From the tool's definition Tool retrieves policy details (type, owner, token count) without modifying or executing financial transactions. Description uses 'Get details' which is a read operation.

How to control get_policy_info

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

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

get_policy_info 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 Tempo — 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.
