Show the CREATE DATABASE statement for a database.
AI agents call show_create_database to retrieve information from Mcp Windows without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and displays the SQL DDL statement used to create a database, which is a read-only query operation with no side effects. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute any database operations—it merely displays metadata about an existing database's creation parameters. Low severity due to minimal blast radius if misused.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'show_create_database' and description 'Show the CREATE DATABASE statement' indicate retrieval/display of an existing database schema definition, not creation or modification of actual databases.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Windows, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for show_create_database:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"show_create_database": {}
}
}show_create_database is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Show the CREATE DATABASE statement for a database. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp Windows MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Mcp Windows MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for show_create_database: 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 Windows. Nothing to install.
show_create_database 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 show_create_database 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 show_create_database. 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.
show_create_database is provided by the Mcp Windows MCP server (mukul975/mcp-windows-automation). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
