Retrieve an image by IIIF identifier.
AI agents call get_image to retrieve information from National Library of Israel Search MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and retrieves existing digital image data from a library archive without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. The IIIF (International Image Interoperability Framework) identifier is a standard mechanism for accessing publicly available digital images. There is no capability to create, modify, delete, or execute code.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_image' and description 'Retrieve an image by IIIF identifier' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Retrieve an image by IIIF identifier. It is categorised as a Read tool in the National Library of Israel Search MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the National Library of Israel Search MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_image: 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 National Library of Israel Search MCP. Nothing to install.
get_image 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_image 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_image. 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_image is provided by the National Library of Israel Search MCP server (mula2812/nli_ai_search). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
