Get the project directory structure as a tree. Use this FIRST to find file paths before using get_file_contents.
AI agents call get_project_structure to retrieve information from Weather Forecast MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only reads and presents filesystem metadata (directory structure) to aid navigation. It has no side effects, cannot modify data, execute code, or trigger external operations. It is informational only, supporting other tools by discovering available file paths. Risk is minimal as the information exposed is typically non-sensitive directory organization.
From the tool's definition Tool retrieves directory structure information without modifying, deleting, or executing operations. Description states 'Get the project directory structure as a tree' - a pure query operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get the project directory structure as a tree. Use this FIRST to find file paths before using get_file_contents. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Weather Forecast MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Weather Forecast MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_project_structure: 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 Weather Forecast MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_project_structure 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_structure 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_structure. 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_structure is provided by the Weather Forecast MCP Server MCP server (lebedaliv2601/mcpsystem). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
