Get help with Node.js or Python SDK usage
AI agents call get-sdk-help to retrieve information from Payman AI Documentation MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool retrieves or queries SDK documentation and usage help, which is consistent with the Read category. It has no side effects, does not execute code, and does not modify any data. The low severity reflects minimal risk even if misused—returning documentation cannot cause harm.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get-sdk-help' and description 'Get help with Node.js or Python SDK usage' indicate retrieval of documentation and guidance without modification, deletion, or execution of code. This is a read-only documentation lookup function.

Register the Payman AI Documentation MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get-sdk-help: 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 Payman AI Documentation MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get-sdk-help 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 get-sdk-help 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 get-sdk-help. 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.
get-sdk-help is provided by the Payman AI Documentation MCP Server MCP server (vanshika-rana/payman-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
