get_network_security_group
AI agents call get_network_security_group to retrieve information from OCI MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The 'get_' prefix universally indicates read-only retrieval operations. Network security group inspection is informational and has no side effects. Despite empty description, the naming convention and context of sibling OCI resource retrieval tools strongly indicate this is a non-destructive query operation.

Register the OCI MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_network_security_group: 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 OCI MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_network_security_group 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_network_security_group 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.
