What get-prds does on Specifai MCP Server

AI agents call get-prds to retrieve information from Specifai MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why get-prds needs a policy

This tool queries and retrieves document metadata without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is consistent with other sibling tools (get-bpds, get-brds, get-nfrs, etc.) which are all read-only document retrieval tools. The minimal blast radius if misused is exposure of internal project documentation, which poses a low security risk.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get-prds' and description explicitly states it retrieves Product Requirement Documents, returning metadata fields (ID, Title, Description, various IDs).

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get-prds gives an agent:

How to control get-prds

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get-prds": {}
  }
}

get-prds 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 Specifai 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.
