What adb_result_get does on Deepadb
AI agents call adb_result_get to retrieve information from Deepadb without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why adb_result_get is rated Low
adb_result_get fetches and returns existing stored result data. The action is purely informational (read); although it 'Updates the handle' (likely marking it as accessed), this is a metadata side-effect, not a destructive or consequential operation.
From the tool's definition Tool description: "Retrieve the content of a stored result handle" — the verb 'Retrieve' and the read-only nature of accessing previously stored results indicate data retrieval without modification.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs adb_result_get safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Deepadb, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For adb_result_get, this is the rule to start with:
adb_result_get 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 Deepadb, apply this rule, and every adb_result_get call is checked against it from then on.
