Fetch a single device from GLP by serial number.
AI agents call get_glp_device to retrieve information from API-Central without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves device information from GLP (GreenLake Platform) by serial number. The 'Fetch' and 'get' verbs confirm it is a read-only query operation that returns data without altering state, creating resources, executing code, or deleting anything. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius: retrieving a single device record poses no direct harm even if misused by an agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'get' and description states 'Fetch a single device' — both indicate data retrieval with no modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Fetch a single device from GLP by serial number. 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 get_glp_device: 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.
get_glp_device 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_glp_device 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_glp_device. 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_glp_device 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.
get_glp_device is one line of API-Central's registry record.
The record carries the whole server: verified identity, auth posture, risk grade, every tool classified, recommended policy — re-checked continuously.
