What list_bots does on :GT Protocol MCP Server
AI agents call list_bots to retrieve information from :GT Protocol MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why list_bots is rated Low
This tool retrieves and displays existing bot configurations but does not create, modify, delete, or execute trades. While the server context involves financial trading, this specific tool is a passive query operation with no side effects. The incomplete description ('List all user') limits confidence slightly, but the name and context clearly indicate a read operation.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'list_bots' and description indicates it lists user bots without modification. The verb 'list' is a read-only retrieval operation.

The rule that runs list_bots safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and :GT Protocol MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For list_bots, this is the rule to start with:
list_bots 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 :GT Protocol MCP Server, apply this rule, and every list_bots call is checked against it from then on.
