Why loki_get_logs needs a policy

The tool retrieves logs from Loki for analysis, which is a fundamental read operation in incident response workflows. It returns data without side effects. Although the description is empty (lowering confidence slightly from 0.98), the name and context within an incident response monitoring suite clearly indicate a read-only retrieval function. No data is modified, deleted, or executed.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'loki_get_logs' indicates log retrieval from Loki (a log aggregation system). The 'get_' prefix and log query context indicate data retrieval without modification.

How to control loki_get_logs

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

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

loki_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 PilotOps 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.
