listResourcePermissions
List explicit permission grants on a resource (workspace/project/folder/document/improvement/plan), including principal type (user|team), level (none|read|write|admin), and 3-state overrides for documents/improvements/plans/whiteboards.

What listResourcePermissions does on Stable Baseline
AI agents call listResourcePermissions to retrieve information from Stable Baseline 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
table_id | string | — | db_row only: the table the row is in. |
database_id | string | — | db_table and db_row only: the database the table or row belongs to. |
resource_id | string | Yes | UUID of the resource (for db_table the table's id, for db_row the row's id) |
resource_type | string | Yes |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why listResourcePermissions is rated Low
Even though listResourcePermissions only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

The rule that runs listResourcePermissions safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Stable Baseline, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For listResourcePermissions, this is the rule to start with:
listResourcePermissions 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 Stable Baseline, apply this rule, and every listResourcePermissions call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about listResourcePermissions
List explicit permission grants on a resource (workspace/project/folder/document/improvement/plan), including principal type (user|team), level (none|read|write|admin), and 3-state overrides for documents/improvements/plans/whiteboards. Read-only. Use when the user asks 'who can see this', 'who has access', 'what permissions are set on this', or to audit existing access on a resource. Also lists who a database or one of its tables is shared with (resource_type database or db_table, needs admin on the database) and who a single row is shared with (db_row, for the row's owner or an admin); a table and a row also name database_id, a row also table_id. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Stable Baseline MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
listResourcePermissions accepts 4 parameters: table_id, database_id, resource_id, resource_type. Required: resource_id, resource_type. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Stable Baseline MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for listResourcePermissions: 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 Stable Baseline. Nothing to install.
listResourcePermissions 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 listResourcePermissions 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 listResourcePermissions. 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.
listResourcePermissions is provided by the Stable Baseline MCP server (https://api.stablebaseline.io/functions/v1/cloud-serve/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
