What get_network_config does on Allcanuse
AI agents call get_network_config to retrieve information from Allcanuse without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why get_network_config is rated Low
Network configuration data is typically sensitive information (IP addresses, DNS settings, network topology, credentials in some cases) that could aid reconnaissance, but retrieval itself causes no side effects. Classified as Read due to the informational nature of the operation.

The rule that runs get_network_config safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Allcanuse, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_network_config, this is the rule to start with:
get_network_config is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Allcanuse, apply this rule, and every get_network_config call is checked against it from then on.
