What get_map_cds does on OrigeneMCP

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

Why get_map_cds needs a policy

Based on the tool name pattern and context of sibling tools in a biomedical database platform, this appears to be a getter/retrieval function that queries CDS mapping data. No write, execute, or destructive capabilities are implied by the name. The empty description prevents higher confidence classification, but the 'get_' prefix and bioinformatics context strongly suggest read-only data retrieval.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_map_cds' suggests retrieval of CDS (Coding DNA Sequence) mapping information. The naming pattern aligns with sibling tools like 'clinvar_get_best_refseqid_by_sequence' and 'depmap_get_expression' which are read operations.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_map_cds gives an agent:

How to control get_map_cds

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

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

get_map_cds 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 OrigeneMCP — 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.

How do I block get_map_cds completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_map_cds. 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.

What MCP server provides get_map_cds? +

get_map_cds 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.
