Query availability test results
AI agents call azure_availability to retrieve information from MCP Container Tools without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool retrieves and queries monitoring data from Azure Application Insights (availability test results). It performs no mutations, code execution, destructive operations, or financial transactions. The action is read-only data retrieval, consistent with the Read category.
From the tool's definition Tool name and description indicate querying: 'Query availability test results' is a retrieval operation with no modification or execution of external systems.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Query availability test results. It is categorised as a Read tool in the MCP Container Tools MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the MCP Container Tools MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for azure_availability: 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 MCP Container Tools. Nothing to install.
azure_availability 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 azure_availability 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 azure_availability. 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.
azure_availability is provided by the MCP Container Tools MCP server (simseksem/mcp-container-tools). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
