Retrieve a single submission with all its answers.
AI agents call get_submission to retrieve information from Nettskjema MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only retrieves or queries existing submission data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It has no side effects and poses minimal risk if misused—an agent could view submission data it may not have intended to access, but cannot alter or destroy it. This is a classic Read category tool.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_submission' and description states 'Retrieve a single submission with all its answers.' The verb 'Retrieve' and the lack of any modification language clearly indicate a read-only operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Retrieve a single submission with all its answers. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Nettskjema MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Nettskjema MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_submission: 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 Nettskjema MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_submission 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_submission 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_submission. 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_submission is provided by the Nettskjema MCP Server MCP server (orjahren/nettskjema-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
