Why get_account_login needs a policy

This tool retrieves existing account login data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It performs a query/fetch operation with no side effects. Severity is low because while login information is sensitive, this is a read operation that does not alter system state or grant unauthorized access itself—the impact depends on how the retrieved information is subsequently used by an agent.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_account_login' uses the verb 'get', which retrieves account login information without modifying it. The description 'Get a specific account login' confirms read-only retrieval of data.

How to control get_account_login

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

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

get_account_login 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 Linode MCP Server — 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.
