get_current_project
AI agents call get_current_project to retrieve information from Kanban without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The naming convention 'get_' strongly implies data retrieval without side effects. In the context of a kanban board server, retrieving the current project is a query operation that reads state without modifying it. The lack of description lowers confidence slightly, but the tool name and server purpose are sufficient to classify this as a Read operation with low severity risk.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_current_project' uses the 'get' prefix, which conventionally indicates a read/retrieval operation.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_current_project gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Kanban, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_current_project:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_current_project": {}
}
}get_current_project is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

get_current_project. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Kanban MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Kanban MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_current_project: 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 Kanban. Nothing to install.
get_current_project 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_current_project 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_current_project. 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_current_project is provided by the Kanban MCP server (multidimensionalcats/kanban-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Kanban, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
