While it runs on a security-sensitive server (memory shell detector), the tool itself only gathers passive system data.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_system_info_tool' and description 'get current system environment info' (translated from Chinese) indicate retrieval of system metadata. No modification, deletion, code execution, or financial operations are described.

How to control get_system_info_tool

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

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

get_system_info_tool 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 Memory Shell Detector MCP — 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.
