AI agents call get_ifc_project_info to retrieve information from Bonsai-mcp without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves metadata about an IFC building model (project name, description, etc.). It is a read-only query operation that does not create, modify, delete, or execute any code. The action is purely informational with minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_ifc_project_info' and description 'Get basic information about the IFC project, including name, description' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.

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

Get basic information about the IFC project, including name, description,. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Bonsai-mcp MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Bonsai- MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_ifc_project_info: 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 Bonsai-mcp. Nothing to install.
get_ifc_project_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 get_ifc_project_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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_ifc_project_info. 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_ifc_project_info is provided by the Bonsai- MCP server (jotaderodriguez/bonsai_mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Bonsai-mcp, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
