Why get_execution_logs needs a policy

'Get' operations retrieve data without altering state. Execution logs are read-only diagnostic information. While the description is empty, the name strongly signals a Read operation, and this is reinforced by the presence of 'download_execution_logs' as a related tool in the same server, which retrieves the same resource class. No evidence of data modification, deletion, code execution, or financial operations.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_execution_logs' and context of sibling tool 'download_execution_logs' indicate retrieval of execution logs without modification. The tool retrieves data (logs) with no side effects.

How to control get_execution_logs

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

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

get_execution_logs 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 Kestra Python MCP Server — 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.
