get_all_projects
AI agents call get_all_projects to retrieve information from MCP Atlassian without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool name clearly indicates a data retrieval operation ('get_all_projects') with no modification, deletion, or execution of code. It returns project information without side effects. Empty description reduces confidence slightly, but the naming convention and context of sibling Read-only tools strongly suggest this is a simple query operation with minimal blast radius if misused.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_all_projects' indicates a retrieval operation. Sibling tools like 'get_agile_boards', 'get_attachments', and 'get_comments' are all Read-category retrieval operations, suggesting this tool follows the same pattern.

Register the MCP Atlassian MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_all_projects: 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 MCP Atlassian. Nothing to install.
get_all_projects 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_all_projects 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_all_projects. 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.
