Get a single report by ID, including score, trends, and per-engine breakdowns.
AI agents call get_report to retrieve information from SurfRank 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 and queries report data by ID without creating, modifying, or deleting any information. The operation is read-only, returning analytical results (scores, trends, breakdowns) from the SurfRank platform. No code execution, financial transactions, or destructive actions are involved. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only view reports it has access to.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_report' and description 'Get a single report by ID, including score, trends, and per-engine breakdowns' indicate retrieval of existing data with no modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get a single report by ID, including score, trends, and per-engine breakdowns. It is categorised as a Read tool in the SurfRank MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the SurfRank MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_report: 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 SurfRank MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_report 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 get_report 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 get_report. 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.
get_report is provided by the SurfRank MCP Server MCP server (surfrankai/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
