Why get-today needs a policy

The 'get-' prefix and context within a task management system indicate this retrieves data without modification. Although the description is empty, the naming convention and sibling tools strongly suggest a data query operation. No indication of side effects, code execution, deletion, or financial operations.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get-today' suggests retrieval of today's tasks or events from Things 3. Server description indicates it enables reading Things 3 data.

How to control get-today

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and SupaThings MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get-today:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get-today": {}
  }
}

get-today is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register SupaThings MCP — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
