AI agents call contacts-list_signals to retrieve information from Saber without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.

Even though contacts-list_signals only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.

Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so contacts-list_signals only ever does what you allow.

List contact signal runs with optional filters for profile URL and pagination.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Saber MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on contacts-list_signals? +

Register the Saber MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for contacts-list_signals: 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 Saber. Nothing to install.

What risk level is contacts-list_signals? +

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

Can I rate-limit contacts-list_signals? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the contacts-list_signals 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 contacts-list_signals completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for contacts-list_signals. 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 contacts-list_signals? +

contacts-list_signals is provided by the Saber MCP server (https://mcp.saber.app/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
