[Spatial] Daily route for a technician's open WOs — greedy nearest-neighbour when coords exist, priority-ordered fallback when they don't.
AI agents call get_route_for_technician to retrieve information from Maximo Enterprise MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and presents existing work order data in a computed sequence for a technician's day. It has no side effects, creates no new records, and makes no changes to the work order system. The algorithm applies to already-existing work orders. This is a read operation with minimal security impact.
From the tool's definition Tool retrieves "Daily route for a technician's open WOs" using algorithmic ordering (nearest-neighbour or priority-based). No modifications, deletions, or external operations are performed.

[Spatial] Daily route for a technician's open WOs — greedy nearest-neighbour when coords exist, priority-ordered fallback when they don't. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Maximo Enterprise MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Maximo Enterprise MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_route_for_technician: 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 Maximo Enterprise MCP. Nothing to install.
get_route_for_technician 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_route_for_technician 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_route_for_technician. 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_route_for_technician is provided by the Maximo Enterprise MCP server (maximo-enterprise-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
