根据项目信息生成 README Markdown(只读返回)
AI agents call generateReadme to retrieve information from Readme-builder-mcp without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool generates a README markdown string and returns it without writing to disk. The description explicitly states it is read-only ('只读返回'), meaning no files are created or modified. The sibling tool 'writeFile' handles the actual write operation, confirming this tool only produces output in memory.
From the tool's definition 根据项目信息生成 README Markdown(只读返回)— explicitly states '只读返回' (read-only return)
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
根据项目信息生成 README Markdown(只读返回). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Readme-builder-mcp MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Readme-builder- MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for generateReadme: 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 Readme-builder-mcp. Nothing to install.
generateReadme 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 generateReadme 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 generateReadme. 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.
generateReadme is provided by the Readme-builder- MCP server (mingzhu3377/readme-builder-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
