Check whether cProfile profiling is enabled for a CDV server function.
AI agents call get_toggle_cprofile to retrieve information from Cloudera Data Visualization MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only checks/retrieves the status of cProfile profiling (enabled or disabled) on the server. It performs a query operation with no side effects, no code execution, no data modification, and no destructive actions. It falls squarely into the Read category as a status check utility.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_toggle_cprofile' and description 'Check whether cProfile profiling is enabled' indicate a read-only query operation that retrieves the current state of a profiling setting without modifying or executing anything.

Check whether cProfile profiling is enabled for a CDV server function. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Cloudera Data Visualization MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Cloudera Data Visualization MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_toggle_cprofile: 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 Cloudera Data Visualization MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_toggle_cprofile 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 get_toggle_cprofile 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 get_toggle_cprofile. 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.
get_toggle_cprofile is provided by the Cloudera Data Visualization MCP Server MCP server (kevintalbert/cdv-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
