Why parse_psn_results needs a policy

The tool reads and parses existing output files from a directory. It performs no writes, executions, or destructive operations — it only retrieves and structures already-existing results data.

From the tool's definition Parse results from an existing PsN output directory (VPC or bootstrap). No PsN/NONMEM installation needed.

POLICY

How to control parse_psn_results

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "parse_psn_results": {}
  }
}

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

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

FAQ

Questions about parse_psn_results

What does the parse_psn_results tool do? +

Parse results from an existing PsN output directory (VPC or bootstrap). No PsN/NONMEM installation needed. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Nonmem MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on parse_psn_results? +

Register the Nonmem MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for parse_psn_results: 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 Nonmem. Nothing to install.

What risk level is parse_psn_results? +

parse_psn_results is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit parse_psn_results? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the parse_psn_results 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.

How do I block parse_psn_results completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for parse_psn_results. 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.

What MCP server provides parse_psn_results? +

parse_psn_results is provided by the Nonmem MCP server (sueinchoi/nonmem-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Nonmem tool call.

Start from Nonmem, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
