Why log_webfilter needs a policy

Log retrieval tools retrieve data about security events and traffic filtering without modifying system state. While the description is empty (lowering confidence slightly), the naming convention and pattern of sibling tools strongly suggests this is a read operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'log_webfilter' suggests querying or retrieving web filter logs. The 'log_' prefix in the context of FortiOS indicates data retrieval operations.

How to control log_webfilter

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for log_webfilter:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "log_webfilter": {}
  }
}

log_webfilter is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register FortiOS 7 6 X MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
