Get a specific label template by name
AI agents call get_label_template to retrieve information from Forgejo without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves label template data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward read operation that queries stored label template information. The low severity reflects that label templates are typically non-sensitive configuration data, and reading them poses minimal security risk even if exposed to an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool description states "Get a specific label template by name" - a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_label_template gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Forgejo, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_label_template:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_label_template": {}
}
}get_label_template is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get a specific label template by name. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Forgejo MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Forgejo MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_label_template: 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 Forgejo. Nothing to install.
get_label_template 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_label_template 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_label_template. 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_label_template is provided by the Forgejo MCP server (sqcows/forgejo-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Forgejo, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
