What server_health does on Intellirecon Console
AI agents call server_health to retrieve information from Intellirecon Console without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why server_health is rated Low
This tool performs a read-only health check operation. It queries the server state and returns status information without modifying, creating, executing, or destroying any data or resources. Health checks are standard diagnostic reads with minimal blast radius if misused by an agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'server_health' and description 'Check the health status of the IntelliRecon AI server' indicate a query operation that retrieves status information with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs server_health safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Intellirecon Console, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For server_health, this is the rule to start with:
server_health 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 Intellirecon Console, apply this rule, and every server_health call is checked against it from then on.
