Why get_item needs a policy

The tool retrieves bank connection data without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. While the data retrieved may be sensitive (bank connection information), the tool itself performs only a read operation with minimal blast radius if misused by an agent—it would simply expose existing data rather than cause destructive or financial harm.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Fetch a single bank connection by id' using GET method, which is a retrieval operation with no side effects.

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

How to control get_item

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

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

get_item 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 Mcp Afip — 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.
