Why get_logs needs a policy

This tool retrieves historical log data for the current or a selected session. It is a read-only query operation that has no side effects, does not execute commands, and does not modify, delete, or move any data. The logs may contain sensitive information (e.g., search queries, product selections), but the act of retrieval itself is not destructive or dangerous.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_logs' and description states it 'Returns persisted JSONL log events' — a retrieval operation with no modification or deletion of data.

How to control get_logs

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

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

get_logs 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 Frisco MCP — 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.
