Get results for a test
AI agents call get_results to retrieve information from TestRail 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 test results from TestRail without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any actions. It has no side effects on the test management system and poses minimal security risk if misused by an AI agent—the worst outcome would be unauthorized information disclosure of test data that the user's TestRail authentication already permits.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_results' and description 'Get results for a test' indicate data retrieval with no modification capability. The verb 'get' is explicitly listed as a Read operation in the classification guidelines.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get results for a test. It is categorised as a Read tool in the TestRail MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the TestRail MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_results: 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 TestRail MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_results 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_results 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_results. 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_results is provided by the TestRail MCP Server MCP server (tenbarrel6/testrail-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
