POLICY

How to control list_org_teams

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "list_org_teams": {}
  }
}

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