Get detailed trace with individual LLM call spans
AI agents call goclaw_trace_get to retrieve information from GoClaw MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves trace information for debugging and observability purposes. The 'get' action and passive nature of accessing trace data (examining LLM call spans) means it has no side effects on system state or data. It is a read-only query operation typical of observability and monitoring tools, posing minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'goclaw_trace_get' and description 'Get detailed trace with individual LLM call spans' indicate retrieval of existing trace/monitoring data with no modification, creation, deletion, or execution of operations.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access goclaw_trace_get gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and GoClaw MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for goclaw_trace_get:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"goclaw_trace_get": {}
}
}goclaw_trace_get is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get detailed trace with individual LLM call spans. It is categorised as a Read tool in the GoClaw MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the GoClaw MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for goclaw_trace_get: 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 GoClaw MCP Server. Nothing to install.
goclaw_trace_get 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 goclaw_trace_get 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 goclaw_trace_get. 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.
goclaw_trace_get is provided by the GoClaw MCP Server MCP server (nextlevelbuilder/goclaw-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from GoClaw MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
