get_plan
AI agents call get_plan to retrieve information from PolarionMcp without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The 'get_plan' tool name and context from sibling tools (all retrieving project/work item data) indicate this retrieves plan information from Polarion ALM without modifying data. This is a read-only query operation with minimal risk if misused by an AI agent—worst case would be unauthorized information disclosure of existing plans.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_plan' and sibling tools like 'get_document', 'get_documents', 'get_test_run', 'get_test_runs', 'get_project_info' all follow the 'get_*' pattern indicating retrieval operations.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
get_plan. It is categorised as a Read tool in the PolarionMcp MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Polarion MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_plan: 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 PolarionMcp. Nothing to install.
get_plan 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_plan 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_plan. 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_plan is provided by the Polarion MCP server (mmerah/polarionmcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
