Display security and legal disclaimer
AI agents call show_security_disclaimer to retrieve information from Echo MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool displays a static disclaimer message, which is a read-only operation with no side effects. However, the broader server context includes highly dangerous offensive security tools (hydra_bruteforce, sqlmap_scan, nmap_scan, etc.), suggesting this disclaimer may be a gate before dangerous operations. The tool itself is benign display/read action, but worth noting the surrounding context.
From the tool's definition 'Display security and legal disclaimer' - this tool only shows/displays informational text

Display security and legal disclaimer. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Echo MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Echo MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for show_security_disclaimer: 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 Echo MCP Server. Nothing to install.
show_security_disclaimer 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 show_security_disclaimer 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 show_security_disclaimer. 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.
show_security_disclaimer is provided by the Echo MCP Server MCP server (somacaru/mcp_setup). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
