WHAT IT DOES

What get_wake_up does on Trace

AI agents call get_wake_up to retrieve information from Trace without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why get_wake_up is rated Low

Retrieves session context and project metadata without side effects or modifications.

From the tool's definition returns orientation context, project identity, conventions, architecture

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs get_wake_up safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Trace, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_wake_up, this is the rule to start with:

get_wake_up Allowed

get_wake_up is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_wake_up": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Trace, apply this rule, and every get_wake_up call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about get_wake_up

What does the get_wake_up tool do? +

Compact orientation context (~300 tokens) for session start. By default returns a {stable, dynamic} split: stable content (project identity, conventions, architecture) is provider-cacheable when injected into system_prompt; dynamic content (recent activity) goes into the user message to avoid busting the system-prompt cache. Pass cache_split: false for the legacy flat shape. See. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Trace MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on get_wake_up? +

Register the Trace MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_wake_up: 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 Trace. Nothing to install.

What risk level is get_wake_up? +

get_wake_up is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit get_wake_up? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_wake_up 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.

How do I block get_wake_up completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_wake_up. 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.

What MCP server provides get_wake_up? +

get_wake_up is provided by the Trace MCP server (nikolai-vysotskyi/trace-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
