Top IP endpoints by traffic volume.
AI agents call pm_endpoints to retrieve information from PacketMaster without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool analyzes and queries network traffic data from PCAP files to identify endpoints ranked by traffic volume—a read-only analytical operation. The entire PacketMaster server is focused on analysis of existing packet captures without modification or execution capabilities. The blast radius is minimal since the tool only presents aggregated traffic metrics from passive network analysis.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'pm_endpoints' and description 'Top IP endpoints by traffic volume' indicate the tool retrieves and displays summary statistics from already-captured PCAP data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Top IP endpoints by traffic volume. It is categorised as a Read tool in the PacketMaster MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the PacketMaster MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for pm_endpoints: 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 PacketMaster. Nothing to install.
pm_endpoints 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 pm_endpoints 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 pm_endpoints. 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.
pm_endpoints is provided by the PacketMaster MCP server (jctechbr/packetmaster). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
