This tool queries and returns information about spaces (likely user workspaces or note collections) in Capacities.io. It performs a read-only operation with no side effects, matching the 'Read' category. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—retrieving space metadata poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_spaces' with description 'Get your spaces' indicates a retrieval operation that lists or fetches user workspace/note structures with no modification capability.

How to control get_spaces

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Capacities MCP Bridge (Unofficial), and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_spaces:

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

get_spaces 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 Capacities MCP Bridge (Unofficial) — 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.
