How to control get_epic ↓

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

Low Risk

The 'get' prefix strongly indicates a read operation that queries and retrieves data without side effects. There is no evidence of data modification, deletion, execution of external operations, or financial impact. The empty description lowers confidence slightly, but the tool name provides sufficient semantic clarity to classify this as a Read operation with low severity.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_epic' indicates retrieval of epic data. The description is empty, but the naming convention aligns with query/fetch patterns.

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

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

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

get_epic 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 Taiga MCP Bridge — 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.
