AI agents call get_antivirus_profile to retrieve information from Fortimanager without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The 'get_' prefix indicates a retrieval operation that queries antivirus profile configuration from FortiManager. This is a read-only action with no side effects. While the empty description reduces confidence slightly, the tool name strongly suggests data retrieval rather than modification, execution, or deletion.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_antivirus_profile' uses the 'get' verb, which conventionally retrieves data without modification. The description is empty, limiting direct evidence, but the naming pattern is consistent with Read operations.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Fortimanager, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_antivirus_profile:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_antivirus_profile": {}
}
}get_antivirus_profile is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

get_antivirus_profile. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Fortimanager MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Fortimanager MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_antivirus_profile: 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 Fortimanager. Nothing to install.
get_antivirus_profile 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_antivirus_profile 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_antivirus_profile. 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_antivirus_profile is provided by the Fortimanager MCP server (jmpijll/fortimanager-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Fortimanager, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
