Even though get_coverage_status_by_serial only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs — an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

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

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Cisco Support, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_coverage_status_by_serial:

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

get_coverage_status_by_serial is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
