AI agents call get_project to retrieve information from OpenTester without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries project data without modifying, deleting, or executing anything. It is a straightforward Read operation that poses minimal security risk, as it only exposes existing project information. The low severity reflects that data exposure alone, without destructive or execute capabilities, is a base-level concern depending on sensitivity of the test data.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_project' and description states 'Get project details including all test cases' - the verb 'Get' and context of retrieving project information indicates a read-only operation with no side effects.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_project gives an agent:
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_project:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_project": {}
}
}get_project is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
Free to start. No card required.
Get project details including all test cases. It is categorised as a Read tool in the OpenTester MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the OpenTester MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_project: 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 OpenTester. Nothing to install.
get_project 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_project 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_project. 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_project is provided by the OpenTester MCP server (kznr02/opentester). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from OpenTester, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
