What edgeconnect_get does on API-Central
AI agents call edgeconnect_get to retrieve information from API-Central without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why edgeconnect_get is rated Low
This tool retrieves data from EdgeConnect Orchestrator API without side effects. However, network orchestrator APIs can expose sensitive configuration and operational data about network topology, security policies, and device states, warranting medium severity due to potential information disclosure risk if an agent misuses access to retrieve confidential network architecture details.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'get' and description explicitly states 'read-only GET request'; no modification or execution capabilities mentioned.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs edgeconnect_get safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and API-Central, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For edgeconnect_get, this is the rule to start with:
edgeconnect_get is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect API-Central, apply this rule, and every edgeconnect_get call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about edgeconnect_get
Perform a read-only GET request to EdgeConnect Orchestrator API. It is categorised as a Read tool in the API-Central MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the API-Central MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for edgeconnect_get: 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 API-Central. Nothing to install.
edgeconnect_get 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 edgeconnect_get 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 edgeconnect_get. 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.
edgeconnect_get is provided by the API-Central MCP server (secure-ssid/centralmcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
