It returns informational data about Liquidsoap without executing code, modifying data, or triggering external operations. The low severity reflects that documentation retrieval poses minimal risk even if accessed inappropriately.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_documentation' and description 'Fetch a specific section of the LiquidSoap 2.4.0 documentation' indicate retrieval of documentation data with no modification, creation, or execution of code.

How to control get_documentation

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_documentation": {}
  }
}

get_documentation 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 LiquidSoapMCP — 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.
