What get_plan_context does on MCPacer

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

Why get_plan_context needs a policy

The 'get_' prefix and contextual placement among retrieval tools strongly suggests this retrieves plan-related data without modification. Although the description is empty (lowering confidence slightly), the naming pattern and sibling tools consistently point to a query/fetch operation with no side effects. No data creation, modification, deletion, code execution, or financial impact is implied.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_plan_context' combined with server's function as a running coach providing 'personalized training plans' and 'progress tracking' indicates a retrieval operation.

How to control get_plan_context

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

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

get_plan_context 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 MCPacer — 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.
