ListAHORuns
AI agents call ListAHORuns to retrieve information from Awslabs Valkey without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
ListAHORuns appears to be a read operation that retrieves information about AHO (Automatic Host Orchestration or similar AWS feature) runs. The absence of action words like 'Create', 'Update', 'Delete', or 'Execute' suggests this is purely informational retrieval. Given the empty description, confidence is moderate but the naming convention strongly suggests a read-only list/query operation with no side effects.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'ListAHORuns' indicates listing/retrieval operation with no modification capability. Description is empty, limiting confidence. The 'List' prefix is a strong signal of a read-only query operation.

Register the Awslabs Valkey MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for ListAHORuns: 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 Awslabs Valkey. Nothing to install.
ListAHORuns 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 ListAHORuns 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 ListAHORuns. 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.
ListAHORuns is provided by the Awslabs Valkey MCP server (awslabs.valkey-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
