What neuron_list_tools does on Neuron
AI agents call neuron_list_tools to retrieve information from Neuron 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
botId | string | Yes | Unique identifier (UUID) of the bot to list tools for |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why neuron_list_tools is rated Low
This tool retrieves information about configured integrations and their endpoints. While it is read-only (no side effects or modifications), the severity is elevated to 'medium' because the returned endpoint configurations and API details could be sensitive information that an adversarial agent might use to map bot infrastructure, identify integration vulnerabilities, or target external services.
From the tool's definition Tool name includes 'list' and description states 'Retrieve all custom API tool integrations'; the action is to query and return configuration data without modifying state.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs neuron_list_tools safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Neuron, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For neuron_list_tools, this is the rule to start with:
neuron_list_tools 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 Neuron, apply this rule, and every neuron_list_tools call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about neuron_list_tools
Retrieve all custom API tool integrations configured for a specific bot, including their endpoints and configuration. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Neuron MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
neuron_list_tools accepts 1 parameter: botId. Required: botId. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Neuron MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for neuron_list_tools: 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 Neuron. Nothing to install.
neuron_list_tools 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 neuron_list_tools 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 neuron_list_tools. 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.
neuron_list_tools is provided by the Neuron MCP server (neuron-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
