What get_pkg_config does on CLIO Adios
AI agents call get_pkg_config 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.
Why get_pkg_config is rated Low
The verb 'Retrieve' combined with the pattern of accessing package configuration (config as noun, not action) confirms this is a data-retrieval tool. No modification, deletion, code execution, or financial operations are implied. It is a straightforward informational query with minimal blast radius if misused.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_pkg_config' and description 'Retrieve the configuration of a specific package in a pipeline' both indicate a read operation that queries/fetches configuration data with no side effects.

The rule that runs get_pkg_config 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_pkg_config, this is the rule to start with:
get_pkg_config 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 CLIO Adios, apply this rule, and every get_pkg_config call is checked against it from then on.

get_pkg_config 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_pkg_config 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_pkg_config. 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.
