list_followed_projects
List all CircleCI projects you are following
Part of the CircleCI MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
WHEN AI AGENTS USE THIS TOOL
AI agents call list_followed_projects to retrieve information from CircleCI 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.
WHY ENFORCE A POLICY ON LIST_FOLLOWED_PROJECTS
Even though list_followed_projects 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.
RECOMMENDED POLICY
Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What does the list_followed_projects tool do?
List all CircleCI projects you are following. It is categorised as a Read tool in the CircleCI MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
How do I enforce a policy on list_followed_projects?
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for list_followed_projects. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the CircleCI MCP server.
What risk level is list_followed_projects?
list_followed_projects is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Can I rate-limit list_followed_projects?
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the list_followed_projects rule in your Intercept 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 list_followed_projects completely?
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for list_followed_projects. 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 list_followed_projects?
list_followed_projects is provided by the CircleCI MCP server (CircleCI-Public/mcp-server-circleci). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
