Read BrightScript debug console logs. Roku API: Telnet connection to {host}:8085 The BrightScript console shows runtime output, print statements, crash logs, stack traces, and compilation errors.

AI agents call roku_log to retrieve information from Roku MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only retrieves diagnostic information from a Roku device's debug console. It is a pure read operation with no side effects—it queries logs and allows filtering via regex pattern but does not modify device state, execute code, delete data, or incur financial obligations.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Read BrightScript debug console logs' and retrieves 'runtime output, print statements, crash logs, stack traces, and compilation errors' via Telnet connection to port 8085.

Read BrightScript debug console logs. Roku API: Telnet connection to {host}:8085 The BrightScript console shows runtime output, print statements, crash logs, stack traces, and compilation errors. Use pattern parameter to filter logs (regex). Ref: developer.roku.com/docs/developer-program/debugging/debugging-channels.md. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Roku MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Roku MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for roku_log: 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 Roku MCP Server. Nothing to install.
roku_log 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 roku_log 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 roku_log. 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.
roku_log is provided by the Roku MCP Server MCP server (maskelog/roku-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
