What get_session_log does on Docx
AI agents call get_session_log to retrieve information from Docx without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why get_session_log is rated Low
This tool retrieves historical session information in a structured format. It performs a read-only query operation that does not modify, create, execute, delete, or transfer data. The 'replayable JSON' output is informational only. No external operations are triggered, no code is executed, and no document state is changed. This is purely a data retrieval function.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_session_log' and description 'Return all operations performed this session as replayable JSON' indicate retrieval and querying of session data with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs get_session_log safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Docx, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_session_log, this is the rule to start with:
get_session_log 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 Docx, apply this rule, and every get_session_log call is checked against it from then on.
