retrieve_tasks_tool
AI agents call retrieve_tasks_tool to retrieve information from Reltio MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Task retrieval is fundamentally a read operation that queries existing workflow state without side effects. No data is created, modified, deleted, or executed. This aligns with standard MDM platform patterns where retrieve/list operations are segregated from action operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'retrieve_tasks_tool' indicates a retrieval/read operation. The tool is part of a workflow management API where task retrieval is a non-mutating query operation, consistent with the sibling 'execute_task_action_tool' which handles mutations.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
retrieve_tasks_tool. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Reltio MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Reltio MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for retrieve_tasks_tool: 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 Reltio MCP Server. Nothing to install.
retrieve_tasks_tool 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 retrieve_tasks_tool 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 retrieve_tasks_tool. 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.
retrieve_tasks_tool is provided by the Reltio MCP Server MCP server (reltio-ai/reltio-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
