Get comprehensive status information about the Smart Coding MCP server. Returns version, workspace path, model configuration, indexing status, and cache information. Useful for understanding the current state of the semantic search system.
AI agents call f_get_status to retrieve information from Smart Coding MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
f_get_status is a diagnostic/status query tool that retrieves the current state of the Smart Coding MCP server. It has no side effects, does not modify data, does not execute code, and does not trigger external operations. This is a classic Read operation with minimal security impact — the information returned is already known to the system itself.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Returns version, workspace path, model configuration, indexing status, and cache information' — purely retrieves status data with no modification, deletion, or execution of external operations.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access f_get_status gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Smart Coding MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for f_get_status:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"f_get_status": {}
}
}f_get_status is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get comprehensive status information about the Smart Coding MCP server. Returns version, workspace path, model configuration, indexing status, and cache information. Useful for understanding the current state of the semantic search system. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Smart Coding MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Smart Coding MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for f_get_status: 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 Smart Coding MCP. Nothing to install.
f_get_status 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 f_get_status 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 f_get_status. 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.
f_get_status is provided by the Smart Coding MCP server (omar-haris/smart-coding-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
