Get Jenkins views
AI agents call get_views 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 Jenkins views (organizational groupings of jobs) without side effects. It performs a simple query operation analogous to listing or fetching data. No code execution, data modification, deletion, or financial impact is possible. Risk is minimal as viewing Jenkins configuration poses no direct threat.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_views' and description 'Get Jenkins views' indicate a retrieval operation. No parameters or capabilities for modification, deletion, or execution are mentioned.

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_views 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_views. 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_views 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.
