Return PyAEDT rules.
AI agents call get_pyaedt_rules to retrieve information from Photonics Simulation MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves engineering rules for PyAEDT (a simulation tool API). It performs no data modification, deletion, code execution, or financial operations. It is consistent with sibling tools on the server (get_all_knowledge, get_checklist, get_hfss_bugs, etc.) which are all informational lookups.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_pyaedt_rules' and description 'Return PyAEDT rules' indicate a retrieval operation. The verb 'get' and 'return' are characteristic of Read operations that query and retrieve data without side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Return PyAEDT rules. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Photonics Simulation MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Photonics Simulation MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_pyaedt_rules: 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 Photonics Simulation MCP. Nothing to install.
get_pyaedt_rules 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_pyaedt_rules 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_pyaedt_rules. 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_pyaedt_rules is provided by the Photonics Simulation MCP server (llldyyy/photonics-simulation-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
