Why get_script_project_tool needs a policy

This tool retrieves/queries project metadata and source code without modifying, executing, or deleting anything. It is a straightforward read operation that fits the 'Read' category. Severity is low because while it exposes source code (which may contain sensitive logic), retrieval alone does not change state or enable direct harm without subsequent actions by an agent.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_script_project_tool' and description 'Retrieve complete project details including all source files' indicate a data retrieval operation with no side effects.

POLICY

How to control get_script_project_tool

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_script_project_tool": {}
  }
}

get_script_project_tool is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register Apps Script MCP — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
