get_storage_config

Gets the storage config for a Supabase project.

How to control get_storage_config ↓

AI agents call get_storage_config to retrieve information from PostgREST without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

This tool retrieves storage configuration information from a Supabase project. It is a read-only query operation that does not modify, execute, delete, or commit financial transactions. The low severity reflects that configuration metadata is typically less sensitive than operational data, though confidence could be slightly reduced if the configuration might contain sensitive values like credentials.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_storage_config' and description 'Gets the storage config for a Supabase project' indicate a retrieval operation with the verb 'Gets', which queries configuration data without modification or side effects.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_storage_config gives an agent:

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_storage_config": {}
  }
}

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

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

What does the get_storage_config tool do? +

Gets the storage config for a Supabase project. It is categorised as a Read tool in the PostgREST MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on get_storage_config? +

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

What risk level is get_storage_config? +

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

Can I rate-limit get_storage_config? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_storage_config 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 get_storage_config completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_storage_config. 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 get_storage_config? +

get_storage_config is provided by the PostgREST MCP server (supabase/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every PostgREST tool call.
