Obtiene información detallada de un repositorio específico
AI agents call get_repository to retrieve information from Mcp Github without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns repository metadata without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a read-only operation that retrieves data from GitHub, fitting the 'Read' category. Severity is low because accessing public or authorized repository information poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_repository' and description 'Obtiene información detallada de un repositorio específico' (retrieves detailed information about a specific repository) indicate a data retrieval operation with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Obtiene información detallada de un repositorio específico. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp Github MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Mcp Github MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_repository: 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 Mcp Github. Nothing to install.
get_repository 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_repository 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_repository. 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_repository is provided by the Mcp Github MCP server (pblarismendi/mcp-github-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
