Get comprehensive status of ARC installation with real-time visual diagrams
AI agents call arc_get_status to retrieve information from ARC Config MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and displays status information about the ARC (Actions Runner Controller) installation without making any changes to the system. It is a read-only diagnostic operation that queries the state of Kubernetes resources and generates visual representations. No side effects, data modifications, destructive actions, code execution, or financial operations are involved.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'arc_get_status' and description 'Get comprehensive status of ARC installation with real-time visual diagrams' indicate pure information retrieval with no modification, deletion, or execution capabilities.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get comprehensive status of ARC installation with real-time visual diagrams. It is categorised as a Read tool in the ARC Config MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the ARC Config MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for arc_get_status: 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 ARC Config MCP Server. Nothing to install.
arc_get_status 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 arc_get_status 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 arc_get_status. 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.
arc_get_status is provided by the ARC Config MCP Server MCP server (tsviz/arc-config-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
