The blast radius of misuse is minimal; an attacker could only view goal information accessible to the authenticated user.

How to control get_goals

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and TickTick MCP Service, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_goals:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_goals": {}
  }
}

get_goals 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 TickTick MCP Service — 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.
