AI agents may call assets.list to permanently remove or destroy resources in AI Design Blueprint. Without a policy, an autonomous agent could delete critical data in a loop with no way to undo the damage. PolicyLayer blocks destructive tools by default and requires explicit human approval before enabling them.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call assets.list in a loop, permanently destroying resources in AI Design Blueprint. There is no undo for destructive operations. PolicyLayer blocks this tool by default and only allows it when a human explicitly approves the action.

Destructive tools permanently remove data. Block by default. Only enable with explicit approval workflows.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access assets.list gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so assets.list only ever does what you allow.

What does the assets.list tool do? +

Public — list downloadable doctrine and agent asset artifacts (skill packs, rule packs, MCP setup snippets) the user can drop into their AI coding tool to import the Blueprint as native skill/rule files. Returns a list of assets with name, format (one of: zip / md / markdown / mdc / json / toml / text — the full vocabulary), pack_version, download_url, and platform target (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini, Qwen). The response also carries count (length of assets) for symmetry with principles.list / clusters.list / guides.list. WHEN TO CALL: the user asks how to bring the Blueprint into their coding agent, or wants to install it as a local skill/rule file. WHEN NOT TO CALL: for the live MCP tools themselves — those are already available through this server. For doctrine content, prefer principles.list/get and guides.list/get. BEHAVIOR: read-only, idempotent, no auth required. Asset artefacts are regenerated on every deploy from the canonical doctrine.. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the AI Design Blueprint MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.

How do I enforce a policy on assets.list? +

Register the AI Design Blueprint MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for assets.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 AI Design Blueprint. Nothing to install.

What risk level is assets.list? +

assets.list is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.

Can I rate-limit assets.list? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the assets.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.

How do I block assets.list completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for assets.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.

What MCP server provides assets.list? +

assets.list is provided by the AI Design Blueprint MCP server (https://aidesignblueprint.com/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every AI Design Blueprint tool call.
