Download the CDR-sanitized file for a given submission UUID.
AI agents call download_sanitized_file to retrieve information from Threat Zone MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool retrieves a pre-processed artifact (a sanitized file) based on a submission identifier. This is fundamentally a data retrieval operation with no side effects on the system or the data itself. The sanitized nature of the file means it has already been processed for safety, and downloading does not modify, delete, or execute anything.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'download_sanitized_file' and description 'Download the CDR-sanitized file for a given submission UUID' indicate retrieval of processed data without modification.

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

Download the CDR-sanitized file for a given submission UUID. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Threat Zone MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Threat Zone MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for download_sanitized_file: 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 Threat Zone MCP Server. Nothing to install.
download_sanitized_file 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 download_sanitized_file 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 download_sanitized_file. 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.
download_sanitized_file is provided by the Threat Zone MCP Server MCP server (threat-zone/threatzonemcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Threat Zone MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
