# fetch_cc_rules_list A read tool on the ComplianceCow MCP Server MCP server. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `fetch_cc_rules_list`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/fetch-cc-rules-list ## Facts - Tool: `fetch_cc_rules_list` - Server: ComplianceCow MCP Server (`compliancecow/cow-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/ComplianceCow/cow-mcp - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "fetch_cc_rules_list", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why fetch_cc_rules_list is rated Low This tool fetches a list of compliance rules from the ComplianceCow platform. The 'fetch' verb and '_list' suffix are standard indicators of read-only retrieval with no side effects. Even if an AI agent misuses this by requesting sensitive rule data, it can only retrieve existing information without creating, modifying, or deleting anything. The blast radius is minimal—low confidentiality/integrity risk. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'fetch_cc_rules_list' indicates a retrieval operation ('fetch') with no modification or deletion verbs. The server description confirms it 'retrieves compliance insights' and supports querying through a 'Compliance Graph'." ## Use case AI agents call fetch_cc_rules_list to retrieve information from ComplianceCow MCP Server 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 ComplianceCow MCP Server: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "fetch_cc_rules_list": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on ComplianceCow MCP Server (208) - `delete_asset_schedule` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/delete-asset-schedule.md - `create_sql_query_evidence` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/create-sql-query-evidence.md - `execute_action` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/execute-action.md - `execute_cypher_query` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/execute-cypher-query.md - `execute_rule` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/execute-rule.md - `execute_shell_command` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/execute-shell-command.md - `execute_task` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/execute-task.md - `prepare_applications_for_execution` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/prepare-applications-for-execution.md - `run_metrics_assessment` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/run-metrics-assessment.md - `schedule_asset_execution` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/schedule-asset-execution.md - `trigger_workflow` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/trigger-workflow.md - `validate_sql_query` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/validate-sql-query.md - `validate_sql_query_and_cel` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/validate-sql-query-and-cel.md - `collect_parameter_input` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/collect-parameter-input.md - `confirm_parameter_input` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/confirm-parameter-input.md - `confirm_template_input` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/confirm-template-input.md - `create_metric_sql_query_evidence` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/create-metric-sql-query-evidence.md - `create_workflow_custom_event` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/create-workflow-custom-event.md - `generate_design_notes_preview` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/generate-design-notes-preview.md - `generate_rule_readme_preview` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/generate-rule-readme-preview.md - `modify_workflow` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/modify-workflow.md - `publish_application` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/publish-application.md - `audit_fetch_assessment_run_details` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/audit-fetch-assessment-run-details.md - `audit_fetch_assessment_run_leaf_control_evidence` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/audit-fetch-assessment-run-leaf-control-evidence.md - `audit_fetch_assessment_runs` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/audit-fetch-assessment-runs.md - `audit_fetch_evidence_records` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/audit-fetch-evidence-records.md - `audit_get_uses_by_ids` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/audit-get-uses-by-ids.md - `audit_list_all_assessment_categories` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/audit-list-all-assessment-categories.md - `audit_list_all_assessments` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/audit-list-all-assessments.md - `audit_list_assessment_control_configs` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp/audit-list-assessment-control-configs.md - …and 178 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/compliancecow-cow-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
