Gets all document types by recursively fetching from root and all children. This is the preferred approach when you need to understand the full folder structure. For large sites, this may take a while to complete. For smaller sites its more efficient than fetching all documents by folder.
AI agents call get-all-document-types to retrieve information from Mcp Dev 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 document type information from the Umbraco CMS without any side effects, creation, modification, or deletion of data. It is purely informational, suitable for understanding the CMS structure. The potential performance impact on large sites does not change its fundamental read-only nature.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get-all-document-types' and description states 'Gets all document types by recursively fetching from root and all children.' The verb 'Gets' and action of 'fetching' indicate data retrieval with no modification, deletion, or execution of…

For large sites, this may take a while to complete. For smaller sites its more efficient than fetching all documents by folder. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp Dev MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Mcp Dev MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get-all-document-types: 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 Mcp Dev. Nothing to install.
get-all-document-types 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-all-document-types 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-all-document-types. 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-all-document-types is provided by the Mcp Dev MCP server (@umbraco-cms/mcp-dev). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
