Get all documents from the MongoDB Atlas knowledge base.
AI agents call get_all_documents to retrieve information from Sample MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves data from a MongoDB knowledge base without side effects. It is a read-only query operation analogous to a SELECT statement. The absence of any destructive, write, or execution semantics places it squarely in the Read category.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_all_documents' and description explicitly state it 'Get all documents from the MongoDB Atlas knowledge base' — a retrieval operation with no modification, deletion, or execution capabilities.

Get all documents from the MongoDB Atlas knowledge base. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Sample MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Sample MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_all_documents: 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 Sample MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_all_documents 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_all_documents 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_all_documents. 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_all_documents is provided by the Sample MCP Server MCP server (satinath-nit/sample-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
