What runtime_monitoring_samples_list does on Appaloft
AI agents call runtime_monitoring_samples_list to retrieve information from Appaloft without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why runtime_monitoring_samples_list is rated Low
This tool queries or retrieves runtime monitoring samples without modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It is a straightforward data retrieval operation consistent with the Read category. Low severity due to minimal blast radius from misuse—the worst outcome would be exposure of existing monitoring data.
From the tool's definition Tool name explicitly contains 'list' and description states 'Read runtime-monitoring.samples.list'. The verb 'Read' and the list operation indicate data retrieval with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs runtime_monitoring_samples_list safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Appaloft, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For runtime_monitoring_samples_list, this is the rule to start with:
runtime_monitoring_samples_list is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Appaloft, apply this rule, and every runtime_monitoring_samples_list call is checked against it from then on.

runtime_monitoring_samples_list 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 runtime_monitoring_samples_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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for runtime_monitoring_samples_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.
runtime_monitoring_samples_list is provided by the Appaloft MCP server (@appaloft/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
