What list_results does on Infersports
AI agents call list_results to retrieve information from Infersports without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
date | object | — | |
team | object | — | |
limit | integer | — | |
league | object | — |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why list_results is rated Low
This tool retrieves and queries historical match results from a cache with no side effects, data modification, code execution, or financial impact. It is a pure read operation that returns finished scores and match metadata. The 'limit' parameter and filtering options (date, team, league) confirm it is a standard data retrieval/search function rather than any form of write, execute, or destructive operation.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Results-only: each entry is the final score, red cards and finished time (no odds)' and explicitly notes 'Look back at finished-match scores from the 30-day results cache'. The server description also confirms 'Read-only'.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs list_results safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Infersports, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For list_results, this is the rule to start with:
list_results 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 Infersports, apply this rule, and every list_results call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about list_results
Look back at finished-match scores from the 30-day results cache, most-recent-first. Results-only: each entry is the final score, red cards and finished time (no odds). Unlike the live tools, these survive a restart — use it for "what was the score of X?" or "yesterday's results". Args: date: optional UTC kickoff date "YYYY-MM-DD" — the day the match was played. team: optional case-insensitive substring matched against either team name. league: optional case-insensitive substring matched against the league name. limit: max results to return, most-recent-first (1–200, default 50). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Infersports MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
list_results accepts 4 parameters: date, team, limit, league. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Infersports MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_results: 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 Infersports. Nothing to install.
list_results is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the list_results 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for list_results. 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.
list_results is provided by the Infersports MCP server (https://api.infersports.dev/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
