Get paginated data from a specific sheet tab.
AI agents call get_sheet_data to retrieve information from ERP-File MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves data from spreadsheet sources (Google Sheets or local files) without any indication of write, delete, or execute capabilities. The use of 'Get' and 'paginated data' strongly suggests a read-only operation. Even though it accesses ERP data, the function is purely informational with no side effects.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_sheet_data' combined with description 'Get paginated data from a specific sheet tab' indicates retrieval of data with no modification or deletion. The pagination mechanism suggests read-only querying.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get paginated data from a specific sheet tab. It is categorised as a Read tool in the ERP-File MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the ERP-File MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_sheet_data: 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 ERP-File MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_sheet_data 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_sheet_data 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_sheet_data. 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_sheet_data is provided by the ERP-File MCP Server MCP server (sharpjsdev/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
