Why get_class needs a policy

This tool retrieves CSS class mappings based on semantic names—a pure lookup operation that queries configuration data and returns results. It does not modify, execute, delete, or create any data. The SSR-safe filtering capability confirms it is a read-only transformation of existing data. No unintended side effects would result from misuse other than potentially retrieving incorrect styling information.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_class' and description 'Get the full utility classes for a semantic class name. Returns the CSS classes you should use in your HTML.' indicates data retrieval with no side effects.

How to control get_class

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

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

get_class 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 Classmcp — 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.
