Get schema reference. Usually not needed - just use templates.
AI agents call get_schema to retrieve information from Makeslates without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves schema metadata without creating, modifying, or deleting any data. It is a straightforward read operation that returns structural information about the MakeSlates system. The low blast radius reflects that fetching a schema cannot cause harm to presentations, slides, or user data.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_schema' and description 'Get schema reference' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects. The clarifying note 'Usually not needed - just use templates' reinforces that this is informational/reference data access.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get schema reference. Usually not needed - just use templates. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Makeslates MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Makeslates MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_schema: 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 Makeslates. Nothing to install.
get_schema 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_schema 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_schema. 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_schema is provided by the Makeslates MCP server (makeslates-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
