Get a single client's full detail by its id.
AI agents call get_client to retrieve information from Clockify Time Tracking without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a read-only query operation that retrieves client information by ID. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute any actions. The data returned is informational only. Severity is low as the blast radius of misuse is limited to exposure of client details already stored in the Clockify system, which is a normal business information disclosure risk.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_client' and description 'Get a single client's full detail by its id' - retrieves client data with no modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get a single client's full detail by its id. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Clockify Time Tracking MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Clockify Time Tracking MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_client: 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 Clockify Time Tracking. Nothing to install.
get_client 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 get_client 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 get_client. 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.
get_client is provided by the Clockify Time Tracking MCP server (pypi:clockify-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
