How to control dev-module-list

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Magento 2 Development MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for dev-module-list:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "dev-module-list": {}
  }
}

dev-module-list is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Magento 2 Development MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
