AI agents call get_connector_status to retrieve information from CorpusIQ without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.

Even though get_connector_status only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.

Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so get_connector_status only ever does what you allow.

What does the get_connector_status tool do? +

Return a pre-formatted Markdown dashboard showing every configured connector's status. IMPORTANT: The output is a complete, ready-to-display Markdown table — show it to the user exactly as returned, do NOT summarize or paraphrase. Each row includes connector name, provider, connection status (with emoji indicators), and a clickable link to authenticate if needed. After displaying the table, offer to help the user connect any unauthorized services and mention they can say 'refresh status' after authenticating.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the CorpusIQ MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on get_connector_status? +

Register the CorpusIQ MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_connector_status: 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 CorpusIQ. Nothing to install.

What risk level is get_connector_status? +

get_connector_status is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit get_connector_status? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_connector_status 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.

How do I block get_connector_status completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_connector_status. 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_connector_status? +

get_connector_status is provided by the CorpusIQ MCP server (https://mcp2.corpusiq.io/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
