# get_mars_rover_photos A read tool on the Integrations MCP MCP server. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `get_mars_rover_photos`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/get-mars-rover-photos ## Facts - Tool: `get_mars_rover_photos` - Server: Integrations MCP (`shriram-vasudevan/integrations-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/Shriram-Vasudevan/integrations-mcp - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "get_mars_rover_photos", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why get_mars_rover_photos is rated Low Despite the empty description reducing confidence slightly, the 'get_' prefix strongly suggests a read-only query operation against a public API (likely NASA's Mars Rover Photo API). This retrieves historical photo data with no capability to modify, delete, or execute operations. Classification as Read with low severity is appropriate for a retrieval-only tool accessing public scientific data. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'get_mars_rover_photos' indicates a data retrieval operation with 'get' prefix, which is characteristic of Read operations that query or retrieve data without side effects." ## Use case AI agents call get_mars_rover_photos to retrieve information from Integrations MCP without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Integrations MCP: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "get_mars_rover_photos": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on Integrations MCP (419) - `airtable_delete_record` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/airtable-delete-record.md - `calendly_cancel_event` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/calendly-cancel-event.md - `calendly_remove_invitee` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/calendly-remove-invitee.md - `cloudflare_delete_dns_record` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/cloudflare-delete-dns-record.md - `cloudflare_purge_cache` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/cloudflare-purge-cache.md - `gcal_delete_event` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/gcal-delete-event.md - `okta_deactivate_user` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/okta-deactivate-user.md - `s3_delete_object` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/s3-delete-object.md - `salesforce_delete_record` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/salesforce-delete-record.md - `supabase_delete_user` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/supabase-delete-user.md - `amplitude_run_segmentation` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/amplitude-run-segmentation.md - `parse_natural_timezone` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/parse-natural-timezone.md - `postmark_send_batch` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/postmark-send-batch.md - `query_database` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/query-database.md - `resend_verify_domain` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/resend-verify-domain.md - `salesforce_query` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/salesforce-query.md - `sendgrid_send_email` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/sendgrid-send-email.md - `snowflake_execute_query` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/snowflake-execute-query.md - `supabase_execute_sql` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/supabase-execute-sql.md - `twilio_make_call` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/twilio-make-call.md - `twilio_send_sms` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/twilio-send-sms.md - `vercel_create_deployment` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/vercel-create-deployment.md - `stripe_create_payment_intent` — Financial — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/stripe-create-payment-intent.md - `author` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/author.md - `generate_password` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/generate-password.md - `generate_users` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/generate-users.md - `airtable_get_record` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/airtable-get-record.md - `airtable_list_bases` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/airtable-list-bases.md - `airtable_list_records` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/airtable-list-records.md - `airtable_list_tables` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp/airtable-list-tables.md - …and 389 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/shriram-vasudevan-integrations-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
