This tool retrieves project metadata without modifying, executing, or deleting any resources. It is a straightforward read operation similar to fetching project information, which is the least risky classification. Severity is low because exposure of project details poses minimal risk—such information is typically accessible to authorized users and does not directly impact infrastructure or data integrity.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'vercel_get_project' and description 'Get details of a specific Vercel project' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects.

POLICY

How to control vercel_get_project

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "vercel_get_project": {}
  }
}

vercel_get_project is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register Vercel — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
