Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_apple_doc_content gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Apple Docs MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_apple_doc_content:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_apple_doc_content": {}
}
}get_apple_doc_content is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

get_apple_doc_content is provided by the Apple Docs MCP server (kimsungwhee/apple-docs-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Apple Docs MCP, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
