Parse a LAS 2.0 well log file and return header, curves list, and data summary.
AI agents call read_las to retrieve information from Petropt/petro without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries well log data from a standard file format. It returns a summary of contents (header, curves, data summary) with no side effects, no data modification, and no code execution. This is a classic Read operation. The low severity reflects that misuse would only expose petroleum engineering data without causing operational, financial, or system damage.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'read_las' and description 'Parse a LAS 2.0 well log file and return header, curves list, and data summary' indicate data retrieval only.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Parse a LAS 2.0 well log file and return header, curves list, and data summary. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Petropt/petro MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Petropt/petro MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for read_las: 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 Petropt/petro. Nothing to install.
read_las 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 read_las 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 read_las. 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.
read_las is provided by the Petropt/petro MCP server (petropt/petro-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
