Why getUrlFilterRules needs a policy

This tool retrieves configuration data about URL filtering policies applied to a gateway. It queries existing rules without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any actions. The paginated retrieval of filter rules is a passive read operation that does not affect network traffic, security posture, or system state.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get' and description explicitly states 'Get gateway URL filter rules' with 'listing URL-based allow/block rules' — a retrieval operation with no modification or execution.

How to control getUrlFilterRules

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "getUrlFilterRules": {}
  }
}

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

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