AI agents call itglue_get_document to retrieve information from Itglue without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries document data by ID without any side effects. It performs a read operation that returns existing information (document structure, metadata, sections, content) without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'itglue_get_document' with description 'Get a specific document by ID' and 'Returns the full document structure with metadata and all sections'. The action is retrieval-only with no modification, creation, deletion, or execution mentioned.

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

Get a specific document by ID, including all embedded sections with their content. Returns the full document structure with metadata and all sections (headings, text, steps, galleries). Section content is HTML. For markdown output, HTML is converted to plain text. If the document has many sections, content may be truncated. Use itglue_get_document_section to retrieve individual sections in full. Args: - document_id (number, required): The document ID - response_format (. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Itglue MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Itglue MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for itglue_get_document: 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 Itglue. Nothing to install.
itglue_get_document 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 itglue_get_document 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 itglue_get_document. 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.
itglue_get_document is provided by the Itglue MCP server (junto-platforms/itglue-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Itglue, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
