What list_components does on Huly
AI agents call list_components to retrieve information from Huly without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why list_components is rated Low

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