Get full details of an Outreach sequence by ID. Example: {
AI agents call outreach_get_sequence to retrieve information from Apple Shortcuts without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool retrieves sequence details from Outreach by ID, which is a read-only query operation. It has no capability to modify, delete, or execute actions. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could retrieve sequence information it shouldn't access, but cannot cause data loss or trigger external operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'outreach_get_sequence' and description 'Get full details of an Outreach sequence by ID' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.

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

Get full details of an Outreach sequence by ID. Example: {. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Apple Shortcuts MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Apple Shortcuts MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for outreach_get_sequence: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Apple Shortcuts. Nothing to install.
outreach_get_sequence 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 outreach_get_sequence 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 outreach_get_sequence. 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.
outreach_get_sequence is provided by the Apple Shortcuts MCP server (@mindstone/mcp-server-apple-shortcuts). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Apple Shortcuts, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
