WHAT IT DOES

What list_notes does on AirMCP

AI agents call list_notes to retrieve information from AirMCP without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why list_notes is rated Low

This is a retrieval operation that queries existing note metadata (title, folder, dates) without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything. It has no side effects beyond returning data. Classified as Read with low severity due to minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent—worst case is unauthorized information disclosure of the user's notes content.

From the tool's definition Tool 'list_notes' retrieves and queries notes data with optional filtering and pagination (limit/offset). Description explicitly states 'List all notes' with no modification, deletion, or execution semantics.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs list_notes safely

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

list_notes Allowed

list_notes is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "list_notes": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect AirMCP, apply this rule, and every list_notes call is checked against it from then on.
