Why get_law needs a policy

This tool performs a lookup/retrieval operation against a legal database. It takes a law abbreviation or name as input and returns corresponding legal provisions. There is no mention of creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent querying incorrect provisions would simply retrieve irrelevant legal text, with no destructive or financial consequences.

From the tool's definition Tool retrieves ('取得する') specific provisions from Japanese laws using the e-Gov API. The description indicates it fetches legal text content without modification or deletion. No side effects beyond data retrieval.

How to control get_law

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Labor Law, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_law:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_law": {}
  }
}

get_law is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Labor Law — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
