Get personal records for user

How to control get_personal_record ↓

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

Low Risk

This tool queries and returns personal record data from Garmin Connect without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It has no side effects beyond data retrieval. Severity is low because unauthorized access to personal fitness records, while a privacy concern, does not expose financial, security, or system-level risks that would warrant higher severity in an AI agent misuse scenario.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_personal_record' and description 'Get personal records for user' indicate data retrieval with no modification.

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

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

get_personal_record 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 Garmin 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.
