WHAT IT DOES

What get_allocation_status does on CLIO Adios

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

RISK

Why get_allocation_status is rated Low

This tool performs a read-only query of Slurm allocation status. It retrieves information about allocated compute nodes but does not create, modify, delete, execute code, or commit financial transactions. The blast radius of misuse is minimal — an attacker could only gain visibility into current resource allocations, not control or modify them.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_allocation_status' and description states 'Check the status of a Slurm node allocation' — uses verb 'Check' which indicates querying/retrieving status information without modification.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs get_allocation_status safely

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

get_allocation_status Allowed

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

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

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

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