THE RISK

Low Risk

Why get_record needs a policy

This tool performs a simple read operation that queries and returns data without side effects. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations. The retrieval of a single record by ID is a fundamental read operation with minimal blast radius if misused by an agent—it can only expose data the agent is authorized to access.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_record' and description 'Get a specific record by ID' indicate data retrieval without modification. The function retrieves a single record from a database by its identifier.

POLICY

How to control get_record

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

policy.json

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

get_record 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 Teable 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.
