Show access-control profiles, effective rules, pending elevation requests, and active grants.
AI agents call ops_access_policy_info to retrieve information from Slack Max API MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool reads and displays access control information, audit data, and grant status. It does not modify, delete, or execute any operations—it purely queries and presents existing security and access policy data. The low severity reflects that while this information could inform an attacker, the tool itself performs no destructive or harmful actions.
From the tool's definition The tool description states 'Show access-control profiles, effective rules, pending elevation requests, and active grants.' The verb 'show' and the nature of returning information about policies and grants indicate data retrieval with no side effects.

ops_access_policy_info 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 ops_access_policy_info 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.
