Why get_plans needs a policy

This tool queries and retrieves test plan data from a Qase project without creating, modifying, or deleting any resources. It is a read-only operation with minimal blast radius if misused—an AI agent could retrieve test plan information but cannot alter project state or cause harm.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_plans' and description 'Get all test plans in a project' indicate a retrieval operation with no mutation or side effects.

How to control get_plans

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

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

get_plans 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 QASE 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.
