Get bulk action metadata for a specific case type and action ID
AI agents call get_case_type_bulk_action to retrieve information from Pega DX MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and returns information about bulk action capabilities for a given case type and action ID. It has no side effects, does not modify data, and does not execute actions. It is purely informational, making it a Read category tool with low severity since metadata retrieval poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name and description indicate 'Get bulk action metadata' - a retrieval operation that queries metadata about bulk actions for a case type without modifying or executing anything.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_case_type_bulk_action gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Pega DX MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_case_type_bulk_action:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_case_type_bulk_action": {}
}
} get_case_type_bulk_action is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
Free to start. No card required.
Get bulk action metadata for a specific case type and action ID. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Pega DX MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Pega DX MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_case_type_bulk_action: 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 Pega DX MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_case_type_bulk_action 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_case_type_bulk_action 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_case_type_bulk_action. 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_case_type_bulk_action is provided by the Pega DX MCP Server MCP server (marco-looy/pega-dx-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Pega DX MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
