Fetch a single contract by id. Returns the full structured contract: sections, filledFields, recipients, signatures, status, audit summary, on-chain proof, permalink.
AI agents call get_contract to retrieve information from QuickContract MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves contract data including sensitive information (recipients, signatures, audit summary, on-chain proof). While the action itself is read-only (non-destructive, non-modifying), the sensitivity of contract data—including signatures and financial terms—and the server's financial nature (escrow, contract signing) elevates severity from low to medium.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_contract' with description stating it 'Fetch[es] a single contract by id' and 'Returns the full structured contract'. The verb 'Fetch' and 'Returns' indicate data retrieval with no modification or execution.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Fetch a single contract by id. Returns the full structured contract: sections, filledFields, recipients, signatures, status, audit summary, on-chain proof, permalink. It is categorised as a Read tool in the QuickContract MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the QuickContract MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_contract: 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 QuickContract MCP. Nothing to install.
get_contract is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_contract rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_contract. 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.
get_contract is provided by the QuickContract MCP server (quickcontractio/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
