Search for datasets, recipes, scenarios by name/pattern
AI agents call search_project_objects to retrieve information from Dataiku DSS MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool retrieves or queries data (searching for objects by name/pattern) without side effects. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations. This is a straightforward read operation consistent with the Read category definition.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Search for datasets, recipes, scenarios by name/pattern' - this is a query/search operation with no modification or execution capability.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Search for datasets, recipes, scenarios by name/pattern. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Dataiku DSS MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Dataiku DSS MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for search_project_objects: 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 Dataiku DSS MCP Server. Nothing to install.
search_project_objects 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 search_project_objects 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 search_project_objects. 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.
search_project_objects is provided by the Dataiku DSS MCP Server MCP server (steven0lisa/mcp-dataiku). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
