AI agents call get_project to retrieve information from Kwork without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The 'get_' prefix conventionally indicates retrieval without side effects. Within the Kwork marketplace context, fetching project details is a standard read operation that returns data without modification, deletion, or execution of external actions. Low severity because unauthorized reads of public marketplace projects pose minimal risk.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_project' indicates a retrieval operation. Description is empty, but the name and context (browsing projects on a freelance marketplace) strongly suggest a read-only query.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
get_project. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Kwork MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Kwork MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_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 Kwork. Nothing to install.
get_project is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_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.
get_project is provided by the Kwork MCP server (simonether/kwork-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
