Why MinecraftWiki_listAllCategories needs a policy

This tool retrieves categorical metadata from a wiki without side effects. It is a pure information query operation consistent with other sibling tools (getPageContent, searchWiki, listCategoryMembers) that all perform read-only wiki data retrieval. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could only enumerate wiki structure, with no ability to modify content or trigger external actions.

From the tool's definition Tool name and description indicate listing/querying operation: 'List all categories in the Minecraft Wiki.' No modification, deletion, execution, or financial operations are performed.

POLICY

How to control MinecraftWiki_listAllCategories

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

policy.json

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

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

Create a free account and register Minecraft Wiki MCP — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
