Get detailed information about a specific resource (deprecated, use get_resource_details)
AI agents call get_resource to retrieve information from Terragrunt GCP Tool MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves or queries information about a specific resource without modifying, deleting, or executing actions. The verb 'get' and the phrase 'detailed information' confirm it is a read-only operation. The deprecation notice does not change its functional classification. Low severity because misuse would only expose existing resource metadata without enabling destructive or financial actions.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_resource' and description 'Get detailed information about a specific resource' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get detailed information about a specific resource (deprecated, use get_resource_details). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Terragrunt GCP Tool MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Terragrunt GCP Tool MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_resource: 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 Terragrunt GCP Tool MCP. Nothing to install.
get_resource 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 get_resource 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 get_resource. 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.
get_resource is provided by the Terragrunt GCP Tool MCP server (spolspol/terragrunt-gcp-tool-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
