WHAT IT DOES

What list-mute does on Nostr Bray

AI agents use list-mute to create or update resources in Nostr Bray, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Nostr Bray environment.

RISK

Why list-mute is rated Medium

The tool creates or modifies a mute list by adding or removing entries. While 'remove' sounds destructive, mute list entries can be re-added, making this reversible. The blast radius is medium — misuse could silence legitimate contacts or expose unwanted content, but it does not delete permanent data.

From the tool's definition 'Add or remove pubkeys, event IDs, keywords, or hashtags' — modifies a mute list (NIP-51, kind 10000)

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs list-mute safely

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

list-mute Rate-limited

list-mute stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
