Get complete hierarchical structure of a page with all node information
AI agents call getPageStructure to retrieve information from Sketch without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries the structural information of a Sketch design page. It has no side effects, does not modify data, execute code, or delete anything. It is purely informational, similar to sibling tools like 'getDocumentStructure' and 'getNodeInfo' which are all read operations on design file data.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'getPageStructure' and description 'Get complete hierarchical structure of a page with all node information' indicate data retrieval only. The verb 'Get' and lack of any modification, execution, or destructive language confirm read-only behavior.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access getPageStructure gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Sketch, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for getPageStructure:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"getPageStructure": {}
}
}getPageStructure is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get complete hierarchical structure of a page with all node information. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Sketch MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Sketch MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for getPageStructure: 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 Sketch. Nothing to install.
getPageStructure 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 getPageStructure 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 getPageStructure. 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.
getPageStructure is provided by the Sketch MCP server (mater1996/sketch-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Sketch, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
