ListAHORuns
AI agents call ListAHORuns to retrieve information from AWS IoT SiteWise MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The 'List' prefix strongly suggests this is a read-only operation that retrieves or enumerates AHO (presumably Automated Health Optimization or similar) runs from AWS IoT SiteWise. Confidence is moderate due to empty description, but the naming convention is a reliable indicator of read-only semantics in AWS APIs. No write, delete, execute, or financial operations are indicated.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'ListAHORuns' indicates a listing operation (List prefix typically associated with retrieval). No description provided to confirm exact behavior.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
ListAHORuns. It is categorised as a Read tool in the AWS IoT SiteWise MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the AWS IoT SiteWise MCP Server 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 AWS IoT SiteWise MCP Server. 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 AWS IoT SiteWise MCP Server MCP server (awslabs.aws-iot-sitewise-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
