Get user config (default voice, speed, font size, etc.).
AI agents call get_config to retrieve information from Mcp Elevenreader without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves existing configuration data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It is a pure read operation that queries user preferences. No destructive, financial, or executable actions are involved. Severity is low because configuration data alone poses minimal risk; misuse would only expose user preferences, not enable further system compromise.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_config' and description states 'Get user config' — a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects. Returns configuration settings like default voice, speed, and font size.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get user config (default voice, speed, font size, etc.). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp Elevenreader MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Mcp Elevenreader MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_config: 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 Elevenreader. Nothing to install.
get_config 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_config 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_config. 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_config is provided by the Mcp Elevenreader MCP server (mit9/mcp-elevenreader). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
