Get detailed information about a specific user in the project
AI agents call get-user to retrieve information from Openfort 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 user information without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is purely a read operation that queries existing data, making it the lowest severity category.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get-user' and description 'Get detailed information about a specific user in the project' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get detailed information about a specific user in the project. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Openfort MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Openfort MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get-user: 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 Openfort MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get-user 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-user 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-user. 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-user is provided by the Openfort MCP Server MCP server (openfort-xyz/-deprecated-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
