AI agents call get_role_details 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 retrieves metadata and details about Ansible Galaxy roles, which is a read-only query operation with no side effects. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute any resources. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could retrieve unwanted information but cannot harm systems or data.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_role_details' and description 'Get detailed information about a specific Ansible Galaxy role' indicate retrieval of data without modification, deletion, or execution of code.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_role_details 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_role_details:

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

get_role_details 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.
