## Why list_usage_limit_entities is rated Low

This tool retrieves and queries usage limit tracking data to display current usage metrics. It has no capability to modify, delete, or execute operations. The description explicitly frames it as an informational tool for viewing data before potentially taking other actions. This is a straightforward Read operation with minimal risk.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'list' and description states 'List the entities currently tracked against a usage limit, including current usage' and 'Use this to see' — pure information retrieval with no modifications or side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call list_usage_limit_entities to retrieve information from Portkey Admin without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Portkey Admin:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "list_usage_limit_entities": {}
  }
}
```
