Why get_groups needs a policy

The tool retrieves group information from Kintone without creating, modifying, or deleting data. This is a straightforward read operation with minimal security risk if misused, as it only exposes existing group metadata without enabling further actions.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_groups' and description 'kintoneのグループ情報を取得します' (retrieves Kintone group information) indicates a data retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.

How to control get_groups

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_groups": {}
  }
}

get_groups 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 Kintone 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.
