Get the sample sheet for a sequencing run.
AI agents call get_run_samplesheet 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 and queries metadata about a sequencing run's samples without creating, modifying, or deleting any data. It is a straightforward read operation on bioinformatics run configuration data.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_run_samplesheet' and description 'Get the sample sheet for a sequencing run' indicate data retrieval with no modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get the sample sheet for a 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_samplesheet: 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_samplesheet 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_samplesheet 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_samplesheet. 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_samplesheet 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.
