# gitlab_list_runners A read tool on the Gitlab MCP server. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `gitlab_list_runners`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-list-runners ## Facts - Tool: `gitlab_list_runners` - Server: Gitlab (`dkeeno/gitlab-mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server.md - Homepage: https://github.com/dkeeno/gitlab-mcp-server - 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": "gitlab_list_runners", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why gitlab_list_runners is rated Low The 'list_' prefix is a common pattern for read-only operations that enumerate resources. Listing GitLab runners retrieves metadata about CI/CD execution resources but does not create, modify, delete, or execute anything. This is a standard Read operation with low blast radius if misused by an agent. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'gitlab_list_runners' indicates a listing operation. The 'list' verb denotes retrieval of information without modification." ## Use case AI agents call gitlab_list_runners to retrieve information from Gitlab 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 Gitlab: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "gitlab_list_runners": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on Gitlab (55) - `gitlab_delete_branch` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-delete-branch.md - `gitlab_delete_ci_variable` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-delete-ci-variable.md - `gitlab_delete_group_variable` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-delete-group-variable.md - `gitlab_revoke_group_access_token` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-revoke-group-access-token.md - `gitlab_revoke_personal_access_token` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-revoke-personal-access-token.md - `gitlab_revoke_project_access_token` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-revoke-project-access-token.md - `gitlab_cancel_pipeline` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-cancel-pipeline.md - `gitlab_register_local_runner` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-register-local-runner.md - `gitlab_retry_pipeline` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-retry-pipeline.md - `gitlab_trigger_pipeline` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-trigger-pipeline.md - `analyze_pipeline_failure` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/analyze-pipeline-failure.md - `gitlab_clone_repo` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-clone-repo.md - `gitlab_get_file` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-get-file.md - `gitlab_get_job_logs` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-get-job-logs.md - `gitlab_get_mr_diff` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-get-mr-diff.md - `gitlab_get_pipeline_artifacts` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-get-pipeline-artifacts.md - `gitlab_get_pipeline_jobs` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-get-pipeline-jobs.md - `gitlab_get_pipeline_status` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-get-pipeline-status.md - `gitlab_get_project` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-get-project.md - `gitlab_get_runner_status` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-get-runner-status.md - `gitlab_get_security_report` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-get-security-report.md - `gitlab_get_security_summary` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-get-security-summary.md - `gitlab_list_branches` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-list-branches.md - `gitlab_list_ci_variables` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-list-ci-variables.md - `gitlab_list_group_access_tokens` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-list-group-access-tokens.md - `gitlab_list_group_variables` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-list-group-variables.md - `gitlab_list_groups` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-list-groups.md - `gitlab_list_mrs` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-list-mrs.md - `gitlab_list_personal_access_tokens` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-list-personal-access-tokens.md - `gitlab_list_pipelines` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server/gitlab-list-pipelines.md - …and 25 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/dkeeno-gitlab-mcp-server.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
