The blast radius of misuse is minimal—unauthorized enumeration of calendars is a low-severity information disclosure risk.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'list_calendars' and description states 'List all calendars accessible to the authenticated user' — a pure retrieval operation with no modification, deletion, or side effects.

How to control list_calendars

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

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

list_calendars 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 VaultAssist — 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.
