AI agents call zentao_products to retrieve information from Zentao MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only retrieves product information from Zentao. It supports listing products and retrieving product details—both read-only operations that do not create, modify, delete, or execute anything. The severity is low because unauthorized read access to product metadata poses minimal risk compared to write, destructive, or financial operations.
From the tool's definition Tool description states '产品操作。支持：查询列表、查询详情' which translates to 'Product operations. Supports: query list, query details.' The verbs 'query list' (查询列表) and 'query details' (查询详情) are purely read operations with no modification or side effects.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Zentao MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for zentao_products:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"zentao_products": {}
}
}zentao_products is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Register the Zentao MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for zentao_products: 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 Zentao MCP Server. Nothing to install.
zentao_products 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 zentao_products 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 zentao_products. 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.
zentao_products is provided by the Zentao MCP Server MCP server (tytt/zentao-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Zentao MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
