Get storage information for all drives including SSDs, HDDs, and usage
AI agents call get_storage_metrics to retrieve information from KYC MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries storage metrics (capacity, usage, drive types) from the system. It has no side effects, does not execute commands, does not modify data, and does not delete or move resources. It is purely informational, consistent with the broader diagnostic purpose of the KYC MCP server. Risk is minimal as misuse would only expose system storage information.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_storage_metrics' and description 'Get storage information for all drives' indicate retrieval of storage data without modification. The verb 'Get' and context of a diagnostics/monitoring server confirm read-only querying behavior.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get storage information for all drives including SSDs, HDDs, and usage. It is categorised as a Read tool in the KYC MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the KYC MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_storage_metrics: 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 KYC MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_storage_metrics 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_storage_metrics 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_storage_metrics. 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_storage_metrics is provided by the KYC MCP Server MCP server (vishnurudra-ai/kyc-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
