list_waveforms

What list_waveforms does on DG-MCP

AI agents call list_waveforms to retrieve information from DG-MCP without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why list_waveforms is rated Low

This tool only retrieves and displays information about available waveforms from a library. It does not modify, delete, create, or execute any waveforms; it simply enumerates existing ones. This is a classic Read operation. Low severity because accessing a list of waveforms poses minimal risk even if accessed by an unauthorized agent.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_waveforms' combined with description indicating it 'lists all waveforms in the current waveform library (built-in + imported)' — this is a retrieval/query operation with no side effects.

The rule that runs list_waveforms safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and DG-MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For list_waveforms, this is the rule to start with:

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