Find all functions that a given function calls.
AI agents call find_callees to retrieve information from Codebase Contextifier 9000 without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves static code relationship information (callees of a function) through semantic analysis. It performs read-only introspection on indexed codebase data—no code execution, data modification, deletion, or side effects occur. The operation is purely informational, similar to other analysis tools on the server like 'find_callers', 'get_call_graph', and 'get_class_hierarchy'.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'find_callees' and description 'Find all functions that a given function calls' indicate a query/retrieval operation that analyzes and returns information about code relationships without modifying any data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Find all functions that a given function calls. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Codebase Contextifier 9000 MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Codebase Contextifier 9000 MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for find_callees: 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 Codebase Contextifier 9000. Nothing to install.
find_callees 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 find_callees 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 find_callees. 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.
find_callees is provided by the Codebase Contextifier 9000 MCP server (jarmentor/codebase-contextifier-9000). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
