AI agents call get_service to retrieve information from Satring without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Low Risk

Why get_service needs a policy

This tool queries and returns information about a service without modifying, executing, or deleting any data. The use of 'Get' and the read-only nature of fetching details by identifier places it clearly in the Read category. Severity is low as misuse would only expose existing service information already available through discovery tools.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_service' and description 'Get full details for a single service by its slug' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.

How to control get_service

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

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

get_service 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 Satring — 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.
