WHAT IT DOES

What analyze_session_cost does on Mcpg

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

RISK

Why analyze_session_cost is rated Low

The 'analyze_' prefix consistently indicates inspection and querying of PostgreSQL metrics/performance data across the sibling tool set. Session cost analysis would retrieve cost metrics for a database session without modifying or executing operations. However, confidence is moderate (0.72) because the tool description is empty, preventing direct confirmation of read-only semantics or any potential side effects.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'analyze_session_cost' with prefix 'analyze_' suggests data retrieval and analysis without modification. Sibling tools like 'analyze_query_plan', 'analyze_lock_hotspots', and 'analyze_distance_metric' are all read-only analytical operations.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs analyze_session_cost safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Mcpg, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For analyze_session_cost, this is the rule to start with:

analyze_session_cost Allowed

analyze_session_cost is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "analyze_session_cost": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Mcpg, apply this rule, and every analyze_session_cost call is checked against it from then on.
