THE RISK

Low Risk

Why get_relationship_type needs a policy

This tool retrieves metadata about a relationship type in the ontology. It does not create, modify, delete, execute code, or trigger external actions. The operation is read-only, returning information about an existing ontology structure. Even in the context of a server with destructive capabilities (delete_ontology, etc.), this specific tool performs only data retrieval, making it the least risky category.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get a single relationship type by ID' — a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects. The verb 'Get' and the retrieval-only nature confirm this is a query action.

POLICY

How to control get_relationship_type

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_relationship_type": {}
  }
}

get_relationship_type is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register Fabric Ontology MCP Server — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
