Gets details of a specific phone number
AI agents call get_phone_number to retrieve information from Vapi Mcp Server Enhanced without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Even though get_phone_number only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs — an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Gets details of a specific phone number. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Vapi Mcp Server Enhanced MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Vapi Mcp Server Enhanced MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_phone_number: 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 Vapi Mcp Server Enhanced. Nothing to install.

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_phone_number 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.

get_phone_number is provided by the Vapi Mcp Server Enhanced MCP server (vapi-mcp-server-enhanced). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
