Why interview_info needs a policy

This tool performs a read-only operation to fetch interview details. It has no side effects, does not modify data, execute code, delete information, or commit financial obligations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could only retrieve information about interviews, which is consistent with the Read category.

From the tool's definition The tool name 'interview_info' and description 'Get details of a single interview by ID' indicate a retrieval operation that queries and returns interview data without modifying, deleting, or executing any actions.

POLICY

How to control interview_info

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "interview_info": {}
  }
}

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

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