Read one finding in full (description, recommendation, status history).
AI agents call get_finding to retrieve information from Claude Team MCP 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 existing security findings without creating, modifying, or deleting any data. It is a simple read operation with minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent—the worst outcome would be unauthorized information disclosure of already-recorded findings.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_finding' with description 'Read one finding in full' explicitly indicates a retrieval operation. The verb 'Read' and the scope limited to viewing description, recommendation, and status history confirm no data modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Read one finding in full (description, recommendation, status history). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Claude Team MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Claude Team MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_finding: 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 Claude Team MCP. Nothing to install.
get_finding 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_finding 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_finding. 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_finding is provided by the Claude Team MCP server (lakshan12367/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
