THE RISK

Low Risk

Why get_specific_board needs a policy

This tool only retrieves or queries board information without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a pure read operation, the least risky category. The low severity reflects that unauthorized reads of board metadata pose minimal direct harm compared to write or destructive operations.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_specific_board' and description 'Retrieves information about the current board' indicate a query/read operation with no side effects.

POLICY

How to control get_specific_board

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

policy.json

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

get_specific_board 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 Miro 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.
