WHAT IT DOES

What get_item does on Grabblist

AI agents call get_item to retrieve information from Grabblist without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`id`	string	Yes	The item ID

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why get_item is rated Low

Even though get_item only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs get_item safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Grabblist, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_item, this is the rule to start with:

get_item Allowed

get_item is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

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

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

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