## Facts

- Tool: `network-ls`
- Server: Http (`@paretools/http`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-dave-london-http.md
- Install: `npx -y @paretools/http`
- Homepage: https://github.com/Dave-London/Pare
- Risk category: Read (Low risk)
- Registry record: grade F, 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": "network-ls",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why network-ls is rated Low

This tool performs a read-only operation that queries and returns information about existing Docker networks. It has no side effects, does not modify data, execute code, delete resources, or move money. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker could only gain visibility into the Docker network topology of the target system, which is information-disclosure level risk.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'network-ls' and description 'Lists Docker networks with structured driver and scope information' indicates a list/query operation that retrieves data about Docker networks without modification, deletion, or execution of commands."

## Use case

AI agents call network-ls to retrieve information from Http 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 Http:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "network-ls": {}
  }
}
```

## For agents

This record is a snapshot. Live verdicts and the full registry:

- Check every server in your MCP config at once: `npx -y policylayer stack`
- Vet a server before you add it: install the mcp-precheck skill — `npx skills add https://policylayer.com` (skill text: https://policylayer.com/skill.md)
- Query the registry over MCP: endpoint `https://api.policylayer.com/mcp` — tools `check_mcp_server`, `check_mcp_stack`, `check_tool`, `search_registry`, `get_change_events`
