What get_trace_log does on Mcp Sap Cpi

AI agents call get_trace_log to retrieve information from Mcp Sap Cpi without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why get_trace_log needs a policy

This tool retrieves diagnostic trace logs from SAP CPI messages, which is fundamentally a read operation with no side effects. However, severity is high rather than low because trace logs in an enterprise integration platform can contain sensitive data including message contents, credentials, API keys, and proprietary business logic flows.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_trace_log' and description 'Get step-by-step trace log for a CPI message' indicate retrieval of diagnostic logs without modification. The phrase 'trace log' confirms read-only query operation.
