Why get_member_organizations needs a policy

This tool retrieves membership information about a member's organizations/workspaces in Trello. It performs a read-only query operation with no capability to modify, delete, or execute actions. The severity is low because membership lists are generally non-sensitive metadata and the blast radius of misuse is minimal.

From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'Get organizations that a member belongs to' and 'see what workspaces a member is part of' — these are query/retrieval operations with no modification or side effects.

How to control get_member_organizations

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Trello, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_member_organizations:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_member_organizations": {}
  }
}

get_member_organizations is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Trello — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
