What depmap_get_dependency does on OrigeneMCP
AI agents call depmap_get_dependency to retrieve information from OrigeneMCP without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why depmap_get_dependency is rated Low
Despite the empty description, the naming convention and context strongly suggest this tool retrieves dependency data from DepMap (a cancer genomics database). It follows the pattern of other depmap_get_* tools on the same server, all of which appear to be read-only queries. There is no evidence of write, delete, execute, or financial operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'depmap_get_dependency' and context of sibling tools (depmap_comprehensive_analysis, depmap_get_expression, depmap_get_mutation) which are all data retrieval operations from the DepMap database.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs depmap_get_dependency safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and OrigeneMCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For depmap_get_dependency, this is the rule to start with:
depmap_get_dependency 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 OrigeneMCP, apply this rule, and every depmap_get_dependency call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about depmap_get_dependency
depmap_get_dependency is a read tool on the Origene MCP server. It is categorised as a Read tool in the OrigeneMCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Origene MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for depmap_get_dependency: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches OrigeneMCP. Nothing to install.
depmap_get_dependency is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the depmap_get_dependency rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for depmap_get_dependency. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
depmap_get_dependency is provided by the Origene MCP server (gentel-lab/origenemcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
