crosspad_list_interfaces

List all crosspad-core interfaces (I*-prefixed classes in crosspad-core/include/crosspad/).

Part of the Crosspad server.

crosspad_list_interfaces is read-only, but an agent in a loop can still rack up calls and cost. PolicyLayer caps every call before it runs. Live in minutes.

AI agents call crosspad_list_interfaces to retrieve information from Crosspad without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.

Even though crosspad_list_interfaces only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.

Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so crosspad_list_interfaces only ever does what you allow.

What does the crosspad_list_interfaces tool do? +

List all crosspad-core interfaces (I*-prefixed classes in crosspad-core/include/crosspad/).. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Crosspad MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on crosspad_list_interfaces? +

Register the Crosspad MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for crosspad_list_interfaces: 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 Crosspad. Nothing to install.

What risk level is crosspad_list_interfaces? +

crosspad_list_interfaces is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit crosspad_list_interfaces? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the crosspad_list_interfaces 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.

How do I block crosspad_list_interfaces completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for crosspad_list_interfaces. 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.

What MCP server provides crosspad_list_interfaces? +

crosspad_list_interfaces is provided by the Crosspad MCP server (crosspad-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Crosspad tool call.
