Why get_task_info needs a policy

This tool retrieves and queries existing task data (details, parameters, status) from ClearML with no side effects. It performs a GET-style operation returning information about a task rather than creating, modifying, executing, or deleting anything. The lack of any write/execute/delete operations in the description and the pattern of sibling read-only tools confirms this is purely informational access.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_task_info' and description 'Get ClearML task details, parameters, and status' indicate retrieval of task information without modification.

How to control get_task_info

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

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

get_task_info 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 Clearml — 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.
