The rule that runs get_connection_log safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Meridian, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_connection_log, this is the rule to start with:
get_connection_log 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 Meridian, apply this rule, and every get_connection_log call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about get_connection_log
[MAINTENANCE] Read-only: Return the recent /mcp connection-event log for this tenant (newest first, up to 200 entries). Every HTTP /mcp request Meridian receives is recorded: timestamp, MCP method (initialize/tools/list/tools/call/...), auth_result (success/oauth/no_token/invalid_token/expired), tools_returned (tool count for tools/list responses), client_user_agent, and HTTP response_status. Use this to diagnose client-side outages (zero tools returned, auth failures, unexpected User-Agents) in real time or after the fact without needing raw Fly.io log access. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Meridian MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
get_connection_log accepts 2 parameters: limit, since. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

get_connection_log 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 get_connection_log 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 get_connection_log. 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.
get_connection_log is provided by the Meridian MCP server (@meridianmcp/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
