AI agents call get_ids_by_hpath to retrieve information from SiYuan MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This is a query operation that retrieves ID values from SiYuan based on a provided human-readable path. It has no side effects—it only reads and returns data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing external operations. It fits the Read category: retrieves or queries data with no side effects.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_ids_by_hpath' and description '根据人类可读路径获取 IDs' (Get IDs by human-readable path) indicates a lookup/retrieval operation that queries for identifiers based on a path, with no modification or deletion of data.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_ids_by_hpath gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and SiYuan MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_ids_by_hpath:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_ids_by_hpath": {}
}
}get_ids_by_hpath is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

根据人类可读路径获取 IDs. It is categorised as a Read tool in the SiYuan MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the SiYuan MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_ids_by_hpath: 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 SiYuan MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_ids_by_hpath 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_ids_by_hpath 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_ids_by_hpath. 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_ids_by_hpath is provided by the SiYuan MCP Server MCP server (xgq18237/siyuan_mcp_server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
