Get all users from the FastAPI application
AI agents call get_users to retrieve information from FastAPI 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 user data without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a standard query operation that simply fetches existing information from the application. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—reading user data is generally lower risk than write/delete operations, though access controls should still be considered in practice.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_users' and description 'Get all users from the FastAPI application' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get all users from the FastAPI application. It is categorised as a Read tool in the FastAPI MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the FastAPI MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_users: 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 FastAPI MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_users 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_users 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_users. 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_users is provided by the FastAPI MCP Server MCP server (teeps-heisenberg/mcp-server-fast-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
