# config_list

List configuration values Use when native settings.json edits are wrong because the values need to be read by the Ruflo runtime (daemon, MCP server, neural router) — those load via the config_* path, not by re-reading settings.json. For .gitignore / .editorconfig style files, native Edit is fine.

## Facts

- Tool: `config_list`
- Server: Claude Flow (`claude-flow`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-ruvnet-claude-flow.md
- Install: `npx -y claude-flow`
- Homepage: https://github.com/ruvnet/claude-flow
- 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": "config_list",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why config_list is rated Low

This is a straightforward read operation that retrieves existing configuration state from the Ruflo runtime. There are no side effects, no code execution, no data modification, and no destructive actions.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'config_list' and description 'List configuration values' — retrieves or queries data without modification."

## Use case

AI agents call config_list to retrieve information from Claude Flow 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 Claude Flow:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "config_list": {}
  }
}
```

## 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`
