What get_server_logs does on Overlord MCP Server

AI agents call get_server_logs to retrieve information from Overlord MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why get_server_logs needs a policy

The tool appears to retrieve server logs without modifying data, placing it in the Read category. However, severity is elevated to 'medium' rather than 'low' because logs from a C2 (command & control) framework server could expose sensitive information about deployed clients, plugin activity, user commands, and infrastructure details that an adversary could exploit for reconnaissance or lateral movement.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_server_logs' indicates retrieval of log data. The description is empty, so classification relies on the name and context of a C2 framework server tool.
