RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs admin_get_settings safely

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "admin_get_settings": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect WordPress MCP Server, apply this rule, and every admin_get_settings call is checked against it from then on.
