Get current voice system status and pending voice input

How to control voice_status ↓

AI agents call voice_status to retrieve information from Jarvis MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

This tool retrieves status information and pending input data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is purely informational and has no side effects. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—misuse would only expose voice system state information, not compromise data integrity or trigger unintended actions.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'voice_status' and description 'Get current voice system status and pending voice input' indicate a read-only query operation that retrieves system state without modification.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access voice_status gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Jarvis MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for voice_status:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "voice_status": {}
  }
}

voice_status is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Jarvis MCP — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
