What agent_list does on EasyBits
AI agents call agent_list to retrieve information from EasyBits without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why agent_list is rated Low
Retrieves agent metadata without side effects; enables enumeration for subsequent operations.
From the tool's definition List persistent agents owned by calling account; returns metadata.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs agent_list safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and EasyBits, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For agent_list, this is the rule to start with:
agent_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 EasyBits, apply this rule, and every agent_list call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about agent_list
List the persistent agents (chat-*, ghostyclaw, openclaw) owned by the calling account. Use this to enumerate agents before messaging, installing skills, or destroying. Returns AgentRecord[] with agentId, template, name, status, sandboxId, agentUrl, embedToken, createdAt and expiresAt. It is categorised as a Read tool in the EasyBits MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the EasyBits MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for agent_list: 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 EasyBits. Nothing to install.
agent_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 agent_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 agent_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.
agent_list is provided by the EasyBits MCP server (@easybits.cloud/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
