What get_azure_token does on OAuth MCP Server

AI agents call get_azure_token to retrieve information from OAuth MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why get_azure_token needs a policy

The tool name suggests it retrieves (gets) an Azure OAuth token. On an OAuth server supporting Device Code and Client Credentials flows, a 'get' operation most likely fetches or acquires a token. This is a Read/fetch action, but tokens grant access to external systems so misuse could be significant.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_azure_token' on an OAuth MCP Server focused on 'secure token management'. Description is empty and uninformative.
