Get Jenkins build info
AI agents call get_build_info to retrieve information from MCP Jenkins 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 returns information about a Jenkins build (such as status, logs, metadata, etc.). It is a passive data retrieval operation with no side effects, no code execution, and no data modification. It aligns with the 'Read' category for tools that query or fetch data without side effects.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_build_info' and description 'Get Jenkins build info' indicate a read-only query operation that retrieves build information without modifying or executing anything.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get Jenkins build info. It is categorised as a Read tool in the MCP Jenkins Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the MCP Jenkins Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_build_info: 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 MCP Jenkins Server. Nothing to install.
get_build_info 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_build_info 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_build_info. 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_build_info is provided by the MCP Jenkins Server MCP server (winjayx/014.jenkinsmcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
