Why get_page_fan_count needs a policy

This tool retrieves a single public metric (fan/like count) from a Facebook Page without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is purely informational and read-only, consistent with other data retrieval tools on the server (get_page_posts, get_post_comments, get_number_of_likes, get_post_clicks). Even if misused, it only exposes public page statistics with minimal security impact.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_page_fan_count' and description 'Get the Page's total fan/like count' indicate retrieval of an aggregate metric with no modification or side effects.

POLICY

How to control get_page_fan_count

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

policy.json

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

get_page_fan_count 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 Just Facebook MCP Server — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
