get_responses

Fetch persisted raw responses for a Superforms ask. This is the MCP equivalent of the HTTP bridge answers endpoint.

Part of the Superforms server.

get_responses is read-only, but an agent in a loop can still rack up calls and cost. PolicyLayer caps every call before it runs. Live in minutes.

AI agents call get_responses to retrieve information from Superforms without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.

Even though get_responses only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.

Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so get_responses only ever does what you allow.

What does the get_responses tool do? +

Fetch persisted raw responses for a Superforms ask. This is the MCP equivalent of the HTTP bridge answers endpoint.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Superforms MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on get_responses? +

Register the Superforms MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_responses: 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 Superforms. Nothing to install.

What risk level is get_responses? +

get_responses is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit get_responses? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_responses 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.

How do I block get_responses completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_responses. 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.

What MCP server provides get_responses? +

get_responses is provided by the Superforms MCP server (https://superforms.co/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Superforms tool call.
