How to control gemini_extract_image ↓

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

Low Risk

This tool retrieves and encodes existing image data from the Gemini interface. While it involves local file I/O, the core operation is data extraction and reading without side effects on the Gemini service or the images themselves. No data is created, modified, deleted, or executed. The local file save is incidental storage of the read data.

From the tool's definition Tool description states: '提取指定图片的 base64 数据并保存到本地文件' (extract base64 data of specified image and save to local file). The action is retrieval and encoding of image data without modification of the source.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access gemini_extract_image gives an agent:

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

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

gemini_extract_image 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 Gemini Skill — 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.
