Why get_execution_status needs a policy

This tool retrieves status information and results from executed tests via a FastAPI endpoint. It performs a read-only query of test execution data without creating, modifying, deleting, or triggering any new operations. The verb 'Get' and lack of any modification language confirm this is a Read category tool with low severity since an agent misuse would only expose existing test data, not cause operational harm.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_execution_status' and description states it 'Get[s] execution status and results' - both indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.

How to control get_execution_status

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

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

get_execution_status 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 OpenTester — 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.
