Get all available pattern types with counts. Useful for discovering specific implementation patterns.
AI agents call get_mod_patterns to retrieve information from Mcmodding without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns information about available pattern types and their counts. The verb 'Get' and the informational nature of the output (discovering patterns for reference) indicate a pure read operation with no capability to modify, delete, or execute code. The context of a Minecraft modding documentation server confirms this is a data retrieval feature.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get all available pattern types with counts' — a retrieval operation that discovers and lists existing data with no modification or side effects.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_mod_patterns gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcmodding, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_mod_patterns:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_mod_patterns": {}
}
}get_mod_patterns is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get all available pattern types with counts. Useful for discovering specific implementation patterns. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcmodding MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Mcmodding MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_mod_patterns: 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 Mcmodding. Nothing to install.
get_mod_patterns 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_mod_patterns 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_mod_patterns. 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_mod_patterns is provided by the Mcmodding MCP server (ogmatrix/mcmodding-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
