[CUSTOM] Calls the Marketo REST API directly (not Adobe's native MCP).
AI agents call custom_get_email_variables to retrieve information from Marketo 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 email variable data from Marketo without modifying, deleting, or executing operations. While it accesses marketing automation data that could be sensitive (email templates, configurations), the read-only nature and lack of side effects places it in the Read category.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Calls the Marketo REST API directly' to get email variables. The verb 'get' and the function of retrieving variables indicates a read operation with no modification or execution capability.

Register the Marketo MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for custom_get_email_variables: 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 Marketo MCP Server. Nothing to install.
custom_get_email_variables 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 custom_get_email_variables 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 custom_get_email_variables. 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.
custom_get_email_variables is provided by the Marketo MCP Server MCP server (tyron-pretorius/marketo-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
