What get_prompt_version does on Portkey Admin
AI agents call get_prompt_version to retrieve information from Portkey Admin without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why get_prompt_version is rated Low
This tool queries and retrieves specific prompt version data by UUID without creating, modifying, or deleting anything. It is a straightforward read operation with no side effects, making it the lowest risk category. Low severity reflects minimal blast radius from misuse—an AI agent could only view existing prompt configuration data.
From the tool's definition Tool description uses 'Retrieve' and 'returns' language indicating data retrieval only. No mention of modifications, deletions, or side effects. Parameters are read-only metadata (template, parameters, model config).
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs get_prompt_version safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Portkey Admin, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_prompt_version, this is the rule to start with:
get_prompt_version 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 Portkey Admin, apply this rule, and every get_prompt_version call is checked against it from then on.
