Why omniwire_plugin needs a policy

This tool scans and inspects JavaScript plugin files in system and user directories. While it does not modify, delete, or execute code directly, it enables reconnaissance of plugin configurations and code that could inform subsequent attacks.

From the tool's definition Tool performs 'scan and inspect' operations on plugin files—these are read-only activities that retrieve and examine file contents without modification. The description uses 'scan' and 'inspect', which are characteristic Read verbs.

How to control omniwire_plugin

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

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

omniwire_plugin 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 OmniWire — 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.
