Get a package for an organization
AI agents call get_org_package to retrieve information from Mcp Github without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves package information for an organization—a read-only operation with no side effects. It queries data from the GitHub API but does not create, modify, delete, or execute anything. The blast radius if misused is minimal, limited to information disclosure of already-public or authorized package metadata.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_org_package' and description 'Get a package for an organization' indicate retrieval of package metadata without modification.

get_org_package 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_org_package 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_org_package. 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.
