This tool retrieves COS (Cloud Object Storage) configuration settings from Tencent Cloud. It is a read-only operation that queries existing configuration data.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Tencent Cloud COS MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for getCosConfig:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"getCosConfig": {}
}
}getCosConfig is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
