Obtiene la instancia de la conexión GIS.
AI agents call get_gis_con to retrieve information from ArcGIS MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves a GIS connection instance, which is a read-only operation that returns a reference to an authenticated session or connection object. It has no side effects—it does not create, modify, delete, or execute commands. While the connection itself may be used for subsequent operations, the tool itself only retrieves/returns the connection object.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_gis_con' and description 'Obtiene la instancia de la conexión GIS' (Gets the GIS connection instance) indicate retrieval of an existing connection object without modification, deletion, or execution of operations.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Obtiene la instancia de la conexión GIS. It is categorised as a Read tool in the ArcGIS MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the ArcGIS MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_gis_con: 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 ArcGIS MCP. Nothing to install.
get_gis_con 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_gis_con 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_gis_con. 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_gis_con is provided by the ArcGIS MCP server (renemorenow/arcgis-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
