Why neowiki-get-schema needs a policy

This tool retrieves schema information from a NeoWiki instance without performing any writes, deletions, or code execution. It is a read-only operation that queries and returns metadata about a schema structure. The low severity reflects minimal risk even if misused, as schema retrieval cannot directly harm data or trigger unintended side effects.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'neowiki-get-schema' and description 'Returns one NeoWiki Schema' indicate a retrieval operation. The verb 'Returns' and 'get' in the name clearly denote data querying with no modification or execution.

How to control neowiki-get-schema

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and MediaWiki MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for neowiki-get-schema:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "neowiki-get-schema": {}
  }
}

neowiki-get-schema 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 MediaWiki MCP Server — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
