Why get_comments needs a policy

This tool retrieves existing comment data without creating, modifying, or deleting any records. It is a simple read operation on the Featurebase API, carrying minimal security risk since it does not alter state or execute arbitrary code. Risk is low even if misused by an agent, as the worst case is unauthorized viewing of comments.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_comments' and description 'Get comments for a post or changelog' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects. The specification of available fields (commentModel, replies) confirms a query-only function.

How to control get_comments

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

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

get_comments 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 Featurebase MCP Server — 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.
