What user_info does on BloodHound MCP Server

AI agents call user_info to retrieve information from BloodHound MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why user_info needs a policy

This tool retrieves and queries user data from BloodHound's Active Directory dataset. All listed info_type options are read-only lookups (properties, rights, memberships, etc.) with no indication of write or execute side effects.

How to control user_info

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

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

user_info 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 BloodHound MCP Server — 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.

What MCP server provides user_info? +
