Get a specific model by ID
AI agents call get_model to retrieve information from Rockfish MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves model metadata or configuration by identifier. It performs a query operation that does not create, modify, delete, execute code, or move money. The verb 'Get' combined with 'by ID' is characteristic of Read-category tools. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—retrieving a model cannot cause operational damage or data loss.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_model' and description 'Get a specific model by ID' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get a specific model by ID. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Rockfish MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Rockfish MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_model: 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 Rockfish MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_model 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_model 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_model. 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_model is provided by the Rockfish MCP Server MCP server (wolfdancer/rockfish-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
