Why parse_puppet_module needs a policy

The name 'parse_puppet_module' implies reading and analyzing a Puppet module file or structure, which is a read/analysis operation consistent with other analysis tools on this server (e.g., analyse_chef_databag_usage, analyse_cookbook_dependencies). No description is provided to confirm or deny side effects, so confidence is lowered. Given the server's migration analysis context, this is most likely a read operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'parse_puppet_module' suggests reading/parsing a Puppet module; description is empty and uninformative.

How to control parse_puppet_module

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

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

parse_puppet_module 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 SousChef — 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.
