Why tool_get_file_info needs a policy

The tool retrieves file information/metadata with no indication of modification, deletion, or execution. Even in a powerful code automation server context, querying file info (size, timestamps, permissions, etc.) is a non-destructive Read operation. Confidence is reduced from 0.95 to 0.85 due to empty description, but the name strongly implies passive data retrieval.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'tool_get_file_info' indicates retrieval of file metadata; no description provided, but naming convention and sibling tools context (list_files, diff_files) suggest read-only file information query.

How to control tool_get_file_info

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "tool_get_file_info": {}
  }
}

tool_get_file_info is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register UltimateCoder — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
