What get_service_endpoints does on CogniRepo
AI agents call get_service_endpoints to retrieve information from CogniRepo without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why get_service_endpoints is rated Low
With an empty description, confidence is reduced. The name strongly suggests retrieving service endpoint data (Read category), which is non-destructive. Severity is medium rather than low because exposing service endpoints could enable reconnaissance for attacks on backend systems if an AI agent misuses this data or leaks it, though the tool itself has no direct side effects.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_service_endpoints' suggests retrieval of endpoint information (a Read operation). Context indicates this is a persistent memory/knowledge graph server for AI tools.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs get_service_endpoints safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and CogniRepo, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_service_endpoints, this is the rule to start with:
get_service_endpoints 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 CogniRepo, apply this rule, and every get_service_endpoints call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about get_service_endpoints
get_service_endpoints is a read tool on the CogniRepo MCP server. It is categorised as a Read tool in the CogniRepo MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the CogniRepo MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_service_endpoints: 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 CogniRepo. Nothing to install.
get_service_endpoints 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_service_endpoints 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_service_endpoints. 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_service_endpoints is provided by the CogniRepo MCP server (pypi:cognirepo). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
