WHAT IT DOES

What list_incidents does on Denpex

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

RISK

Why list_incidents is rated Low

Even though list_incidents 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.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs list_incidents safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Denpex, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For list_incidents, this is the rule to start with:

list_incidents Allowed

list_incidents is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "list_incidents": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Denpex, apply this rule, and every list_incidents call is checked against it from then on.

Questions about list_incidents

What does the list_incidents tool do? +

List the GPU/training incidents Denpex's always-on monitor caught and auto-escalated on your fleet — failure type, cluster, escalation level, and the fix it applied. Requires the Scale plan or higher. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Denpex MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on list_incidents? +

Register the Denpex MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_incidents: 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 Denpex. Nothing to install.

What risk level is list_incidents? +

list_incidents is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit list_incidents? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the list_incidents 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 list_incidents completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for list_incidents. 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 list_incidents? +

list_incidents is provided by the Denpex MCP server (denpex-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
