Why get_transcript needs a policy

Retrieving a transcript is a read-only operation that queries and returns data with no side effects. The tool does not create, modify, delete, execute code, or move funds. Given the empty description, confidence is moderate but the name strongly implies a simple retrieval operation typical of Read category tools.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_transcript' indicates retrieval of meeting transcript data. No description provided, but the naming convention and context of a video call participation server suggest this retrieves historical meeting content without modification.

How to control get_transcript

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

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

get_transcript 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 Joinly — 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.
