WHAT IT DOES

What docker_image_list does on Aapanel

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

RISK

Why docker_image_list is rated Low

This tool performs a read-only operation to enumerate Docker images. It has no side effects, does not execute commands, modify data, or affect system state. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker gains visibility into deployed container images but cannot directly harm systems. Classified as Read with low severity.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'docker_image_list' and description 'List all Docker images' indicate a query operation that retrieves information without modifying state.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs docker_image_list safely

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

docker_image_list Allowed

docker_image_list is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

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

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Aapanel, apply this rule, and every docker_image_list call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about docker_image_list

What does the docker_image_list tool do? +

List all Docker images. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Aapanel MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on docker_image_list? +

Register the Aapanel MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for docker_image_list: 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 Aapanel. Nothing to install.

What risk level is docker_image_list? +

docker_image_list is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit docker_image_list? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the docker_image_list 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.

How do I block docker_image_list completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for docker_image_list. 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.

What MCP server provides docker_image_list? +

docker_image_list is provided by the Aapanel MCP server (nipunanirmal/aapanel-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
