Retrieve a D-Tools SI task by its unique ID.
AI agents call get_task to retrieve information from D-Tools MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a simple data retrieval operation by task ID. The verb 'Retrieve' and the read-only nature of fetching existing data without modification, creation, or deletion confirms it belongs in the Read category. The low severity reflects that querying task information poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_task' and description 'Retrieve a D-Tools SI task by its unique ID' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Retrieve a D-Tools SI task by its unique ID. It is categorised as a Read tool in the D-Tools MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the D-Tools MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_task: 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 D-Tools MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_task 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_task 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_task. 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_task is provided by the D-Tools MCP Server MCP server (saml1211/d-tools-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
