AI agents call get_ansible_lint_version 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

This tool purely retrieves metadata about an installed software package (ansible-lint version). It has no side effects, does not execute code, create/modify/delete data, or affect system state. It is a straightforward informational read operation with minimal security impact.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_ansible_lint_version' and description 'Get the version of ansible-lint installed' indicate a simple query operation that retrieves version information without modifying, executing, or deleting any data.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_ansible_lint_version 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 get_ansible_lint_version:

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

get_ansible_lint_version 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.
