Why voice_mode_info needs a policy

This tool retrieves and displays diagnostic metadata about the voice-mode system. It performs read-only operations that query system state without modifying, executing, deleting, or committing any resources. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Get[s] diagnostic information' and 'Shows version, configuration, and provider status' — purely informational queries with no side effects.

POLICY

How to control voice_mode_info

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "voice_mode_info": {}
  }
}

voice_mode_info is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register Voice Mode — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
