Why inspect_local_property needs a policy

This tool retrieves and queries semantic metadata about properties from an ontology. It performs read-only introspection of ontology structures to extract and resolve inherited attributes. The critical file access workflow fragment is incomplete but suggests file reading for analysis rather than modification. No side effects, data creation, code execution, or destructive operations are described.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Get[s] the full semantic profile of a property' and 'resolving inherited domain and range via rdfs:subPropertyOf+'. The verb 'Get' and 'inspect' indicate retrieval only.

How to control inspect_local_property

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Schema Gov It MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for inspect_local_property:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "inspect_local_property": {}
  }
}

inspect_local_property is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Schema Gov It MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
