Fetch F1 sessions (practice, qualifying, race). Optionally filter by session_key or meeting_key.
AI agents call list_sessions to retrieve information from OpenF1 MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries Formula 1 session information without side effects. The 'Fetch' operation and filtering by session_key or meeting_key are read-only operations that do not create, modify, delete, or execute any actions. Misuse by an AI agent would result in only access to historical or public racing data, posing minimal security risk.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_sessions' with verb 'Fetch' and description indicates retrieval of F1 session data (practice, qualifying, race) with optional filtering parameters. No modification, deletion, execution, or financial operations described.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Fetch F1 sessions (practice, qualifying, race). Optionally filter by session_key or meeting_key. It is categorised as a Read tool in the OpenF1 MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the OpenF1 MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_sessions: 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 OpenF1 MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_sessions 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 list_sessions 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 list_sessions. 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.
list_sessions is provided by the OpenF1 MCP Server MCP server (jimmyjoe009/openf1_mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
