Retrieve complete content for a specific resource.
AI agents call get_resource_content to retrieve information from MedAdapt Content Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves existing medical content without modification, deletion, or execution of arbitrary operations. While it may access sensitive medical information, the tool itself performs no destructive, financial, or executable actions—it simply fetches and returns data. Severity is low because reading educational content poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_resource_content' and description 'Retrieve complete content for a specific resource' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and MedAdapt Content Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_resource_content:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_resource_content": {}
}
}get_resource_content is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
Free to start. No card required.
Retrieve complete content for a specific resource. It is categorised as a Read tool in the MedAdapt Content Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the MedAdapt Content Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_resource_content: 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 MedAdapt Content Server. Nothing to install.
get_resource_content 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_resource_content 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_resource_content. 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_resource_content is provided by the MedAdapt Content Server MCP server (ryoureddy/medadapt-content-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from MedAdapt Content Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
