Why get_bedrock_patterns needs a policy

This tool retrieves static or reference architectural patterns and cost information from Bedrock. There is no indication of data creation, modification, deletion, code execution, or financial transactions. The operation is purely informational and read-only, making it a Read category tool with low severity.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get architecture patterns' which is a retrieval operation. Returns reference information about Bedrock application patterns, component relationships, and cost considerations with no side effects or data modification.

POLICY

How to control get_bedrock_patterns

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

policy.json

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

get_bedrock_patterns 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 Prometheus 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.
