get_project_manifest
AI agents call get_project_manifest to retrieve information from Looker MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The 'get_' prefix and context within a Looker MCP server providing access to semantic models and content management indicates this tool retrieves configuration or metadata about a project without modifying it. Manifests are typically declarative specifications read to understand project state. No indication of execution, modification, or irreversible operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_project_manifest' indicates retrieval of project manifest data. Function naming convention (get_*) and position among sibling tools (predominantly create/add/audit operations) suggests read-only querying.

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_project_manifest 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.
