Return the full accepted-view text of the document.
AI agents call get_body_text to retrieve information from Docx without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries document text content in its accepted state. It performs no creation, modification, deletion, code execution, or financial operations. The 'accepted-view' qualifier confirms it reads the document in a processed state rather than making changes.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_body_text' and description 'Return the full accepted-view text of the document' indicate retrieval of document content without modification or side effects.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_body_text gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Docx, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_body_text:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_body_text": {}
}
}get_body_text is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Return the full accepted-view text of the document. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Docx MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Docx MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_body_text: 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 Docx. Nothing to install.
get_body_text 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_body_text 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_body_text. 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_body_text is provided by the Docx MCP server (securityronin/docx-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Docx, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
