# list_tracks List all tracks for a specific genome assembly. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `list_tracks`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/list-tracks ## Facts - Tool: `list_tracks` - Server: OrigeneMCP (`gentel-lab/origenemcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/GENTEL-lab/OrigeneMCP - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade C, 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": "list_tracks", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why list_tracks is rated Low This is a read-only operation that queries and returns metadata about available genome tracks. It has no side effects, no code execution capability, and presents minimal risk even if an AI agent requests it without restrictions. The blast radius is limited to information disclosure only. From the tool's own definition: "The tool 'list_tracks' retrieves information ('list all tracks') for a genome assembly without modifying, executing, or deleting data." ## Use case AI agents call list_tracks to retrieve information from OrigeneMCP 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 OrigeneMCP: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "list_tracks": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on OrigeneMCP (438) - `post_vep_hgvs` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/post-vep-hgvs.md - `post_vep_id` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/post-vep-id.md - `post_ga4gh_features_search` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/post-ga4gh-features-search.md - `post_lookup_id` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/post-lookup-id.md - `check_genome_accessions` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/check-genome-accessions.md - `check_virus_accessions` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/check-virus-accessions.md - `clinvar_find_single_mutation` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/clinvar-find-single-mutation.md - `clinvar_get_best_refseqid_by_sequence` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/clinvar-get-best-refseqid-by-sequence.md - `clinvar_query_sequence_variants` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/clinvar-query-sequence-variants.md - `clinvar_query_variant_significance` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/clinvar-query-variant-significance.md - `depmap_comprehensive_analysis` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/depmap-comprehensive-analysis.md - `depmap_get_dependency` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/depmap-get-dependency.md - `depmap_get_expression` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/depmap-get-expression.md - `depmap_get_mutation` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/depmap-get-mutation.md - `ensembl_get_genes_by_band` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/ensembl-get-genes-by-band.md - `get_activity` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/get-activity.md - `get_activity_by_id` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/get-activity-by-id.md - `get_activity_by_ids` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/get-activity-by-ids.md - `get_activity_supplementary_data_by_activity` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/get-activity-supplementary-data-by-activity.md - `get_activity_supplementary_data_by_activity_by_id` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/get-activity-supplementary-data-by-activity-by-id.md - `get_activity_supplementary_data_by_activity_by_ids` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/get-activity-supplementary-data-by-activity-by-ids.md - `get_alignment_region` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/get-alignment-region.md - `get_all_interaction_partners_of_the_protein_set` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/get-all-interaction-partners-of-the-protein-set.md - `get_archive_id` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/get-archive-id.md - `get_assay` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/get-assay.md - `get_assay_by_id` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/get-assay-by-id.md - `get_assay_by_ids` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/get-assay-by-ids.md - `get_assay_class` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/get-assay-class.md - `get_assay_class_by_id` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/get-assay-class-by-id.md - `get_assay_class_by_ids` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp/get-assay-class-by-ids.md - …and 408 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/gentel-lab-origenemcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
