Get details of a specific sequencing run.
AI agents call get_run to retrieve information from NGS360 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 information about an existing sequencing run and returns details without altering any data or triggering external operations. It is a simple query/fetch operation, which falls squarely into the Read category with low severity since misuse would only expose metadata about sequencing runs without enabling destructive or financial actions.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_run' and description 'Get details of a specific sequencing run' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get details of a specific sequencing run. It is categorised as a Read tool in the NGS360 MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the NGS360 MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_run: 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 NGS360 MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_run 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_run 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_run. 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_run is provided by the NGS360 MCP Server MCP server (ngs360/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
