Fetch notices (occurrences) for a specific fault
AI agents call get_honeybadger_notices to retrieve information from Honeybadger 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 error tracking data from Honeybadger without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any code. It is a passive read operation that fetches notice information for analysis purposes only. The blast radius is minimal as it only accesses already-existing error tracking metadata within the developer's own monitoring system.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_honeybadger_notices' and description 'Fetch notices (occurrences) for a specific fault' indicate a retrieval operation with no data modification capability.

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