Why get_inventory_levels needs a policy

This tool queries and retrieves inventory data without modifying or deleting anything. It simply returns available and committed quantities for variants at specific locations. There are no side effects or state changes. The low severity reflects minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent—worst case would be information disclosure of inventory levels.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get inventory levels' with filtering capability. The verb 'Get' and the lack of any modification language (create, update, delete, adjust) indicate this is a retrieval operation.

How to control get_inventory_levels

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

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

get_inventory_levels 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 Sapo — 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.
