Why get_addresses needs a policy

This tool queries and returns existing address information without creating, modifying, or deleting data. It has no side effects and poses minimal risk—it merely surfaces data the user already owns. Classified as Read with low severity.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_addresses' and context indicates it retrieves user address data. Description is truncated ('Get user') but the name and sibling tools (add_address, checkout_ready) confirm this is a data retrieval operation with no modification capability.

How to control get_addresses

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Food402, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_addresses:

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

get_addresses 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 Food402 — 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.
