THE RISK

Low Risk

Why get_leads needs a policy

This tool retrieves or queries lead data from the database without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations. The emphasis on retrieving 'existing data' confirms it is a safe read-only operation. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius if misused—an AI agent could only access lead information already stored, with no capability to alter systems or commit harm.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_leads' and description 'retrieve existing data from the database' indicate a data query operation with no side effects.

POLICY

How to control get_leads

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

policy.json

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

get_leads 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 Prospectio MCP API — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

How do I enforce a policy on get_leads? +

Register the Prospectio MCP API MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_leads: 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 Prospectio MCP API. Nothing to install.

What risk level is get_leads? +

How do I block get_leads completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_leads. 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.

What MCP server provides get_leads? +

get_leads is provided by the Prospectio MCP API MCP server (prospectio-ai/prospectio-api-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Prospectio MCP API tool call.

Start from Prospectio MCP API, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
