Export the data behind a visualization as CSV or JSON.
AI agents call export_data to retrieve information from HoloViz MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves/exports existing visualization data in a standard format (CSV or JSON). It reads data that is already present and does not modify, delete, or execute anything. The blast radius is low since it only exposes data that is already part of the visualization context.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Export the data behind a visualization as CSV or JSON. It is categorised as a Read tool in the HoloViz MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the HoloViz MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for export_data: 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 HoloViz MCP Server. Nothing to install.
export_data 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 export_data 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 export_data. 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.
export_data is provided by the HoloViz MCP Server MCP server (sumayabee/holoviz-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
