Retrieves a specific task. This endpoint can be used for any task type - contact requests, rental owner requests, resident requests or to do\
AI agents call retrieve_tasks to retrieve information from Wpm Mcp Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool fetches task information (contact requests, rental owner requests, resident requests, or to-do items) without modifying, executing operations, or affecting financial data. It is a straightforward read operation with minimal security risk—the worst case is unauthorized access to task information.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'retrieve_tasks' and description states 'Retrieves a specific task', indicating data retrieval with no modification or side effects.

Retrieves a specific task. This endpoint can be used for any task type - contact requests, rental owner requests, resident requests or to do\. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Wpm Mcp Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Wpm Mcp Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for retrieve_tasks: 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 Wpm Mcp Server. Nothing to install.
retrieve_tasks 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 retrieve_tasks 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 retrieve_tasks. 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.
retrieve_tasks is provided by the Wpm Mcp Server MCP server (wpm-mcp-server-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
