Get the current GitLab configuration (non-sensitive info only).
AI agents call get_gitlab_config to retrieve information from Kepler MCP GitLab Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and retrieves configuration information without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations. The explicit restriction to 'non-sensitive info only' further confirms it is a read-only data retrieval operation with minimal risk exposure.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_gitlab_config' and description explicitly state 'Get the current GitLab configuration (non-sensitive info only)' — retrieves configuration data without side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get the current GitLab configuration (non-sensitive info only). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Kepler MCP GitLab Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Kepler MCP GitLab Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_gitlab_config: 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 Kepler MCP GitLab Server. Nothing to install.
get_gitlab_config 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_gitlab_config 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_gitlab_config. 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_gitlab_config is provided by the Kepler MCP GitLab Server MCP server (ryan-rbw/kepler-mcp-gitlab-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
