Get comprehensive status of all EgressIP objects in the cluster.
AI agents call get_egressip_status to retrieve information from OCP Performance Analyzer MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and reports status information about EgressIP objects. The verb 'get' and the lack of any mention of modification, deletion, or execution of operations confirm it is a read-only query operation. No data is created, modified, deleted, or irreversibly changed.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_egressip_status' and description 'Get comprehensive status of all EgressIP objects in the cluster' indicate a query/retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.

Register the OCP Performance Analyzer MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_egressip_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 OCP Performance Analyzer MCP. Nothing to install.
get_egressip_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 get_egressip_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 get_egressip_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.
get_egressip_status is provided by the OCP Performance Analyzer MCP server (openshift-eng/ocp-performance-analyzer-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
