查询指定表的详细结构,包含字段注释、索引、外键等信息
AI agents call describe_table to retrieve information from Keevor Mysql 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 table structure metadata only. It performs a read-only operation with no side effects—no data is created, modified, deleted, or executed. Even though a sibling tool 'execute_sql' could be destructive, this specific tool is limited to schema inspection, making it a Read category with low severity risk.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'describe_table' and description '查询指定表的详细结构,包含字段注释、索引、外键等信息' (query specified table's detailed structure, including field comments, indexes, foreign keys, etc.) indicate retrieval of schema metadata without modification.

查询指定表的详细结构,包含字段注释、索引、外键等信息. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Keevor Mysql MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Keevor Mysql MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for describe_table: 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 Keevor Mysql. Nothing to install.
describe_table 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 describe_table 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 describe_table. 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.
describe_table is provided by the Keevor Mysql MCP server (keevor/keevor-mysql-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
