What list_project_snapshots does on Cutpilot
AI agents call list_project_snapshots to retrieve information from Cutpilot without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why list_project_snapshots is rated Low
Even though list_project_snapshots only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs list_project_snapshots safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Cutpilot, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For list_project_snapshots, this is the rule to start with:
list_project_snapshots 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 Cutpilot, apply this rule, and every list_project_snapshots call is checked against it from then on.
