What get_workspace_context does on Pypi:best Cad

Why get_workspace_context is rated Low
This tool retrieves contextual information about the current workspace and drawing database without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing external operations. It is a pure read operation with minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent—at worst it could expose information about the current CAD drawing context.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_workspace_context' and description 'Return the active workspace/conversation/thread/drawing database scope' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or deletion of data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs get_workspace_context safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Pypi:best Cad, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_workspace_context, this is the rule to start with:
get_workspace_context 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 Pypi:best Cad, apply this rule, and every get_workspace_context call is checked against it from then on.
