AI agents call get_school to retrieve information from LinkedIn Intelligence MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves factual institutional data (school/university information) without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It poses minimal risk as a read operation on publicly available or profile-associated educational information. The broader server context involves professional networking data, but this specific tool is limited to data retrieval.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_school' and description 'Get school/university information' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects. The verb 'Get' and the informational nature of school/university data confirm read-only access.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and LinkedIn Intelligence MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_school:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_school": {}
}
}get_school is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
