Retrieve detailed information about a specific workspace, including its configuration, metadata, and user access details
AI agents call get_workspace to retrieve information from Portkey MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries data about a workspace—its configuration, metadata, and user access details—without creating, modifying, or deleting any resources. It has no side effects beyond returning information. It fits the 'Read' category for tools that retrieve or query data (get, fetch).
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_workspace' and description 'Retrieve detailed information about a specific workspace' indicate a read-only retrieval operation with no modification or destructive capabilities.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Retrieve detailed information about a specific workspace, including its configuration, metadata, and user access details. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Portkey MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Portkey MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_workspace: 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 Portkey MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_workspace 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_workspace 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_workspace. 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_workspace is provided by the Portkey MCP Server MCP server (r-huijts/portkey-admin-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
