ingest_parsed_csv

Import pre-parsed CSV from Eric Zimmerman tools (MFTECmd, PECmd, AmcacheParser, SrumECmd) for querying. Auto-detects CSV type by column headers. Useful when you already have parsed output from EZ tools.

What ingest_parsed_csv does on Windows Forensics MCP Server

AI agents call ingest_parsed_csv to retrieve information from Windows Forensics MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why ingest_parsed_csv needs a policy

This tool retrieves and ingests forensic data from pre-parsed CSV files (output from established forensic tools like MFTECmd, PECmd, AmcacheParser, SrumECmd) for subsequent analysis and querying. It performs no side effects, does not modify source data, does not execute code or commands, and does not delete anything.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'ingest_parsed_csv' and description state it 'Import[s] pre-parsed CSV' and enables 'querying' of forensic data. The function is to load and parse existing forensic artifacts for analysis, with no capability to modify, delete, or execute operations.

How to control ingest_parsed_csv

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

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

ingest_parsed_csv 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 Windows Forensics MCP Server — 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.

Useful when you already have parsed output from EZ tools. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Windows Forensics MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on ingest_parsed_csv? +

Register the Windows Forensics MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for ingest_parsed_csv: 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 Windows Forensics MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is ingest_parsed_csv? +

ingest_parsed_csv is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit ingest_parsed_csv? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the ingest_parsed_csv 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.

How do I block ingest_parsed_csv completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for ingest_parsed_csv. 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.

What MCP server provides ingest_parsed_csv? +

ingest_parsed_csv is provided by the Windows Forensics MCP Server MCP server (x746b/winforensics-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
