Get current cleanup configuration and settings for agents and rooms

How to control get_cleanup_configuration ↓

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

Low Risk

This tool retrieves configuration data without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is purely informational and has no side effects. The low severity reflects that accessing configuration settings poses minimal risk unless the configuration itself contains sensitive credentials or secrets, which is unlikely in a typical agent orchestration platform's cleanup settings interface.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_cleanup_configuration' and description 'Get current cleanup configuration and settings for agents and rooms' indicate a retrieval operation.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_cleanup_configuration gives an agent:

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

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

get_cleanup_configuration 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 ZMCPTools — 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.
