Get app container filesystem path
AI agents call simulator_get_app_container to retrieve information from Xclaude Plugin without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves filesystem path information about an app container in a simulator. It performs a query with no side effects—no data is created, modified, deleted, or destroyed. The information returned could be used by other tools, but the tool itself only reads and returns data.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'simulator_get_app_container' and description 'Get app container filesystem path' indicate a read-only query operation. The verb 'get' and the absence of modification language confirm retrieval only.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get app container filesystem path. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Xclaude Plugin MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Xclaude Plugin MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for simulator_get_app_container: 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 Xclaude Plugin. Nothing to install.
simulator_get_app_container 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 simulator_get_app_container 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 simulator_get_app_container. 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.
simulator_get_app_container is provided by the Xclaude Plugin MCP server (conorluddy/xclaude-plugin). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
simulator_get_app_container is one line of Xclaude Plugin's registry record.
The record carries the whole server: verified identity, auth posture, risk grade, every tool classified, recommended policy — re-checked continuously.
