AI agents call getLinkTypes to retrieve information from MCP Server Generator without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The name indicates a query or retrieval operation returning link type information, consistent with Read category. However, confidence is lowered because the description is empty and we cannot determine exact parameters, scope, or whether it accesses sensitive configurations. The sibling tools include data analysis and browser automation (higher risk), but this tool alone appears to be informational lookup.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'getLinkTypes' suggests retrieval of link type definitions or metadata. No description provided to confirm scope.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access getLinkTypes gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and MCP Server Generator, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for getLinkTypes:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"getLinkTypes": {}
}
}getLinkTypes is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

getLinkTypes. It is categorised as a Read tool in the MCP Server Generator MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the MCP Server Generator MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for getLinkTypes: 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 MCP Server Generator. Nothing to install.
getLinkTypes 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 getLinkTypes 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 getLinkTypes. 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.
getLinkTypes is provided by the MCP Server Generator MCP server (serhatuzbas/mcp-server-generator). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from MCP Server Generator, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
