Why forecast needs a policy

This tool queries and returns weather forecast information based on geographic coordinates. It is a straightforward data retrieval operation with no capability to modify, delete, or execute arbitrary operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could only retrieve forecasts for different locations, which poses no security or operational risk.

From the tool's definition Tool retrieves weather forecast data for a given coordinate using MeteoSwiss ICON model via Open-Meteo API. The description indicates data retrieval with no side effects: 'Hourly + daily weather forecast for a WGS84 point'.

How to control forecast

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

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

forecast 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 Bergauf — 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.
