get_function
AI agents call get_function to retrieve information from Fabric Dw Mcp Cli without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
In the context of a Data Warehouse administration server, 'get_function' most likely retrieves function definitions, metadata, or properties without modifying state. Without explicit evidence of side effects (execution, modification, deletion), the conservative classification is Read. The confidence is reduced due to the missing description, but the naming convention and server context support this categorization.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_function' suggests retrieval of function metadata or definition. The empty description limits certainty, but 'get_' prefix conventionally indicates a read operation.

get_function. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Fabric Dw Mcp Cli MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Fabric Dw Mcp Cli MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_function: 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 Fabric Dw Mcp Cli. Nothing to install.
get_function 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_function 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_function. 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_function is provided by the Fabric Dw Mcp Cli MCP server (sdebruyn/fabric-dw-mcp-cli). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
