Get an overview of LaunchFrame project variants: Base (B2B single-tenant), Multi-tenant, and B2B2C. Explains how to read the active variant from the .launchframe file and what behavioral differences to account for when writing new code.
AI agents call variant_get_overview to retrieve information from LaunchFrame 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 presents architectural information about project variants from existing configuration files. It performs a read-only query operation to inform developers about implementation patterns, with no ability to modify data, execute commands, delete resources, or commit financial transactions. The primary use case is knowledge retrieval to guide code writing, not performing any actions on the system.
From the tool's definition Tool name includes 'get_overview' and description states 'Get an overview of LaunchFrame project variants' and 'Explains how to read the active variant from the .launchframe file' — these are retrieval operations with no side effects.

Get an overview of LaunchFrame project variants: Base (B2B single-tenant), Multi-tenant, and B2B2C. Explains how to read the active variant from the .launchframe file and what behavioral differences to account for when writing new code. It is categorised as a Read tool in the LaunchFrame MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the LaunchFrame MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for variant_get_overview: 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 LaunchFrame MCP. Nothing to install.
variant_get_overview 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 variant_get_overview 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 variant_get_overview. 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.
variant_get_overview is provided by the LaunchFrame MCP server (launchframe-dev/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
