Per-agent conversation counts (total/production/test) and last activity.
AI agents call get_agent_activity to retrieve information from Copilot Insights 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 telemetry and monitoring data from Microsoft Copilot Studio without modifying any state. It aggregates conversation metrics and timestamps—purely observational analytics with no side effects or irreversible actions. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius: misuse would at worst expose internal activity metrics, not compromise systems or data integrity.
From the tool's definition Tool returns aggregated conversation counts and activity timestamps ('Per-agent conversation counts... and last activity'). The description uses read-only terminology: 'query', 'pulling', 'get_'. No write, delete, or execution capabilities indicated.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Per-agent conversation counts (total/production/test) and last activity. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Copilot Insights MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Copilot Insights MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_agent_activity: 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 Copilot Insights MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_agent_activity 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_agent_activity 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_agent_activity. 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_agent_activity is provided by the Copilot Insights MCP Server MCP server (syokiel/copilot-insights). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
