AI agents call query_records to retrieve information from Xrm without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The name 'query_records' strongly implies a read/retrieval operation. The server description explicitly separates read and write access, and the write operations are handled by dedicated sibling tools (create_record, update_record, upsert_record). However, the description is empty, so confidence is reduced.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'query_records' and server description mentions 'read and write access to Microsoft Dataverse environments'; sibling tools include separate create/update/upsert operations, suggesting query is read-only
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access query_records gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Xrm, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for query_records:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"query_records": {}
}
} query_records is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

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