Get Argo CD version information.
AI agents call get_version to retrieve information from Mcp Read Only Argocd without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves metadata (version information) from an Argo CD instance without modifying any state or triggering any operations. It is a straightforward read operation consistent with the read-only nature of the server. The severity is low because version information is non-sensitive metadata typically displayed publicly, and misuse poses minimal risk.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_version' and description states it retrieves 'Argo CD version information'. The server is explicitly described as 'read-only' and this tool performs only a query operation with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get Argo CD version information. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp Read Only Argocd MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Mcp Read Only Argocd MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_version: 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 Read Only Argocd. Nothing to install.
get_version 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_version 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_version. 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_version is provided by the Mcp Read Only Argocd MCP server (lukleh/mcp-read-only-argocd). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
