# mysqlsh_dump_tables Dump specific tables using util.dumpTables(). Creates a compressed, parallel dump of specified tables from a schema. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `mysqlsh_dump_tables`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysqlsh-dump-tables ## Facts - Tool: `mysqlsh_dump_tables` - Server: Mysql Mcp (`oci:docker.io/writenotenow/mysql-mcp:v1.0.0`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/neverinfamous/mysql-mcp.git - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "mysqlsh_dump_tables", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why mysqlsh_dump_tables is rated Low This tool exports table data for backup or analysis purposes. While it accesses data, it does not modify, delete, or execute arbitrary code. The operation is read-only and leaves the database state unchanged. Severity is low because data export carries minimal risk compared to tools that modify or destroy data. Confidence is high because the description is explicit about the read-only nature of the dump operation. From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states it 'Creates a compressed, parallel dump of specified tables' using util.dumpTables(). Dumping is a read-only export operation that retrieves and serializes data without modifying or deleting it." ## Use case AI agents call mysqlsh_dump_tables to retrieve information from Mysql Mcp without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Mysql Mcp: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "mysqlsh_dump_tables": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on Mysql Mcp (222) - `mysql_audit_restore_backup` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-audit-restore-backup.md - `mysql_cascade_simulator` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-cascade-simulator.md - `mysql_doc_drop_collection` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-doc-drop-collection.md - `mysql_doc_remove` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-doc-remove.md - `mysql_drop_partition` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-drop-partition.md - `mysql_drop_schema` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-drop-schema.md - `mysql_drop_table` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-drop-table.md - `mysql_drop_view` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-drop-view.md - `mysql_event_drop` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-event-drop.md - `mysql_force_index` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-force-index.md - `mysql_fulltext_drop` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-fulltext-drop.md - `mysql_json_remove` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-json-remove.md - `mysql_migration_rollback` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-migration-rollback.md - `mysql_role_drop` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-role-drop.md - `mysql_analyze_table` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-analyze-table.md - `mysql_create_dump` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-create-dump.md - `mysql_event_create` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-event-create.md - `mysql_flush_tables` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-flush-tables.md - `mysql_json_merge` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-json-merge.md - `mysql_migration_apply` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-migration-apply.md - `mysql_optimize_table` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-optimize-table.md - `mysql_spatial_intersection` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-spatial-intersection.md - `mysql_spatial_transform` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-spatial-transform.md - `mysql_stats_row_number` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-stats-row-number.md - `mysql_transaction_begin` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-transaction-begin.md - `mysql_transaction_execute` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-transaction-execute.md - `mysqlsh_run_script` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysqlsh-run-script.md - `proxysql_commands` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/proxysql-commands.md - `mysql_audit_diff_backup` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-audit-diff-backup.md - `mysql_audit_list_backups` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp/mysql-audit-list-backups.md - …and 192 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-neverinfamous-mysql-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
