List configured Radarr/Sonarr servers. Returns ID, name, isDefault, 4K status, active defaults (directory, profile, tags).
AI agents call get_services to retrieve information from Overseerr MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns existing configuration data about media server instances without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward read-only operation with minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_services' and description 'List configured Radarr/Sonarr servers' indicates retrieval of configuration metadata with no modification capability. Returns informational fields (ID, name, isDefault, 4K status, directory, profile, tags).
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_services gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Overseerr MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_services:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_services": {}
}
} get_services is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

List configured Radarr/Sonarr servers. Returns ID, name, isDefault, 4K status, active defaults (directory, profile, tags). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Overseerr MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Overseerr MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_services: 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 Overseerr MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_services 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 get_services 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 get_services. 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.
get_services is provided by the Overseerr MCP Server MCP server (jhomen368/overseerr-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Overseerr MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
