Get details of a specific block or page by ID
AI agents call get_block to retrieve information from Wolai 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 information about existing blocks or pages without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a pure read operation that queries data from the Wolai knowledge base. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—misuse would only expose information the agent already has authorization to access within the Wolai system.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_block' and description 'Get details of a specific block or page by ID' explicitly indicates retrieval of data with no modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get details of a specific block or page by ID. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Wolai MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Wolai MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_block: 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 Wolai MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_block 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_block 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_block. 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_block is provided by the Wolai MCP Server MCP server (wuchaoli/wolai-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
