This tool only queries and retrieves existing comment data without modifying, deleting, executing external operations, or creating financial obligations. It is a straightforward read operation on Facebook post comments.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'get_post_comments' and description states it 'Retrieves comments for a specific post' — a pure data retrieval operation with no side effects.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_post_comments gives an agent:

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

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

get_post_comments 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 Facebook MCP Server — 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.
