Get the bot user for the current integration token
AI agents call notion_retrieve_bot_user to retrieve information from MCP Notion Server (@suncreation) without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves information about the bot user without modifying, deleting, or executing side-effect operations. It is a simple metadata lookup that returns configuration or identity information for the current integration. The blast radius is minimal—an attacker learns only which bot account is tied to the token, which is already implied by possessing the token itself.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'retrieve' and description states 'Get the bot user' — a read-only query of bot user metadata associated with the integration token.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get the bot user for the current integration token. It is categorised as a Read tool in the MCP Notion Server (@suncreation) MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the MCP Notion Server (@suncreation) MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for notion_retrieve_bot_user: 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 MCP Notion Server (@suncreation). Nothing to install.
notion_retrieve_bot_user 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 notion_retrieve_bot_user 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 notion_retrieve_bot_user. 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.
notion_retrieve_bot_user is provided by the MCP Notion Server (@suncreation) MCP server (suncreation/mcp-notion-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
