Get the status of a background indexing job by its jobId. Use this after calling th0th_index to check progress.
AI agents call th0th_index_status to retrieve information from Th0th without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries the state of an existing indexing operation. It performs a read-only lookup by jobId to report progress, with no capability to modify, execute, or delete data. The sibling th0th_index tool performs the actual indexing work, but th0th_index_status merely observes its status, making it a safe Read operation with minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get the status of a background indexing job' — retrieves status information with no side effects.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access th0th_index_status gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Th0th, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for th0th_index_status:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"th0th_index_status": {}
}
}th0th_index_status is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get the status of a background indexing job by its jobId. Use this after calling th0th_index to check progress. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Th0th MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Th0th MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for th0th_index_status: 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 Th0th. Nothing to install.
th0th_index_status 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 th0th_index_status 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 th0th_index_status. 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.
th0th_index_status is provided by the Th0th MCP server (s1lv4/th0th). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
