RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs proxy_status safely

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

proxy_status Allowed

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

View as policy code

policy.json

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

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

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