analyze_project

Analyze an entire Ansible project structure and generate a comprehensive report.

How to control analyze_project ↓

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

Low Risk

The tool performs static analysis of project structure and generates a report. No side effects occur—it does not create, modify, execute, or delete resources. This is a query/retrieval operation with low blast radius if misused by an AI agent, as it can only surface information about existing projects.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'analyze_project' and description 'Analyze an entire Ansible project structure and generate a comprehensive report' indicate a read-only operation that retrieves and examines project data without modifying, executing, or deleting anything.

Risk signalsBulk/mass operation — affects multiple targets

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

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

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

analyze_project 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 AAP Enterprise MCP Server — 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.

What does the analyze_project tool do? +

Analyze an entire Ansible project structure and generate a comprehensive report. It is categorised as a Read tool in the AAP Enterprise MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on analyze_project? +

Register the AAP Enterprise MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for analyze_project: 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 AAP Enterprise MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is analyze_project? +

analyze_project is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit analyze_project? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the analyze_project 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.

How do I block analyze_project completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for analyze_project. 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.

What MCP server provides analyze_project? +

analyze_project is provided by the AAP Enterprise MCP Server MCP server (sibilleb/aap-enterprise-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every AAP Enterprise MCP Server tool call.
