Scoped documentation assistant
A starting point for knowledge-management teams: scoped documentation lookup with cited answers and no write access. Analysis template; runtime wiring required.
Requested access
Foo Guard analysis template, not a client-native runnable configuration. Tool names and scopes are illustrative. Supply real bindings, scoped runtime credentials and redacted audit logging before use; no credentials are included.
Using this config
This is a Foo Guard analysis template. Review and adapt it to your agent runtime, bind its tools and permissions, then scan your copy. Do not paste it into a client's MCP settings as a native integration.
Example input or starter prompt
Review this template for a documentation assistant limited to approved product help articles.
Example output
Expected design: one scoped read tool, no writes or arbitrary HTTP. Map the illustrative tool and resource scope to actual controls before deployment.
Usage and setup instructions
Import into Foo Guard for analysis. Replace illustrative ownership and resource scopes, bind actual tools and enforce permissions in your runtime. Rescan after adapting. Do not load directly into an agent client.
Compatibility and prerequisites
Foo Guard JSON analysis format. Not a native MCP, Claude or other client configuration.
Limitations
Declarations are not enforced by this file. No runtime integration or deployed access controls have been verified.
