Get configured work item types for a project.
AI agents call get_project_types 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.
This tool retrieves project configuration information (work item types) without side effects, making it a Read operation. The use of 'Get' in the name and the passive retrieval nature of querying project metadata pose minimal risk if misused by an AI agent, as no data is modified, deleted, or executed.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_project_types' and description 'Get configured work item types for a project' indicate retrieval of configuration data with no modification or execution capability.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get configured work item types for a project. 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_project_types: 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_project_types 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_project_types 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_project_types. 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_project_types 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.
