Returns only the source code block of a specific method within a class.
AI agents call get_method_code to retrieve information from APK Security Guard MCP Suite without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and retrieves source code from an APK analysis context, performing a read operation with no side effects. It extracts and displays existing code without altering, executing, or deleting any data. While analyzing APK security, the tool itself only serves to expose information about the APK, not to modify or execute it.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_method_code' and description 'Returns only the source code block of a specific method' indicate retrieval of code without modification. The verb 'Returns' explicitly indicates a read-only operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Returns only the source code block of a specific method within a class. It is categorised as a Read tool in the APK Security Guard MCP Suite MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the APK Security Guard MCP Suite MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_method_code: 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 APK Security Guard MCP Suite. Nothing to install.
get_method_code 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_method_code 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_method_code. 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_method_code is provided by the APK Security Guard MCP Suite MCP server (zmbcen/apk-security-guard-mcp-suite). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
