# get_project Fetch a previously saved CivilQuants project by project_id. When the id is not in context (e.g. a new conversation reopening 'Demo - Cantilever Wall'), pass the project's exact display name in the project_id field instead. If several projects share the name, the error envelope lists the candidate project_ids; call list_projects to browse everything saved. Paid tier only — anonymous callers receive a TIER_INSUFFICIENT envelope. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `get_project`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/get-project ## Facts - Tool: `get_project` - Server: Civilquants (`https://api.civilquants.com/mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants.md - Homepage: https://github.com/https://api.civilquants.com/mcp - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server auth posture: open - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 1 (1 required) - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `project_id` | string | yes | | Parameters from the server's own tool schema. ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "get_project", "arguments": { "project_id": "" } } } ``` ## Why get_project is rated Low This tool retrieves project data from storage without side effects. It queries an existing project by ID or name and returns the data. There is no creation, modification, deletion, code execution, or financial transaction involved. The access control (paid tier only) does not change the category. From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Fetch a previously saved CivilQuants project' — a retrieval operation with no modification, deletion, or execution of external systems." Risk signals: Bulk/mass operation — affects multiple targets ## Use case AI agents call get_project to retrieve information from Civilquants without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Civilquants: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "get_project": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on Civilquants (55) - `compute_box_culvert` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-box-culvert.md - `compute_combined_services_trench` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-combined-services-trench.md - `compute_connection_to_existing` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-connection-to-existing.md - `compute_ditch` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-ditch.md - `compute_embankment_cross_section` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-embankment-cross-section.md - `compute_end_area_earthworks` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-end-area-earthworks.md - `compute_gabion_wall` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-gabion-wall.md - `compute_headwall_attenuation_outlet` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-headwall-attenuation-outlet.md - `compute_highway_drainage_channel` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-highway-drainage-channel.md - `compute_lighting_column` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-lighting-column.md - `compute_multi_section_assembly` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-multi-section-assembly.md - `compute_pad_foundation` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-pad-foundation.md - `compute_parapet` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-parapet.md - `compute_pipe_bedding` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-pipe-bedding.md - `compute_reinforced_soil_wall` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-reinforced-soil-wall.md - `compute_road_marking` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-road-marking.md - `compute_single_service_run` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-single-service-run.md - `compute_soakaway` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-soakaway.md - `compute_soil_nailed_slope` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-soil-nailed-slope.md - `compute_traffic_sign` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-traffic-sign.md - `compute_utility_chamber` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-utility-chamber.md - `compute_utility_kiosk_base` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-utility-kiosk-base.md - `recompute_project` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/recompute-project.md - `render_skill_report` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/render-skill-report.md - `compute_attenuation_tank` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-attenuation-tank.md - `compute_bored_pile_wall` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-bored-pile-wall.md - `compute_cantilever_wall` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-cantilever-wall.md - `compute_carrier_pipe_run` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-carrier-pipe-run.md - `compute_catchpit` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-catchpit.md - `compute_edge_drain` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-edge-drain.md - …and 25 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
