List all backed up versions of a stored procedure with metadata.
AI agents call list_sp_versions to retrieve information from MSSQL MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a pure read operation—it lists and retrieves metadata about stored procedure versions. It has no side effects, does not execute code, does not modify data, and does not delete or create resources. The operation is informational only, consistent with the Read category for data retrieval operations like list and get.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_sp_versions' and description 'List all backed up versions of a stored procedure with metadata' indicate a retrieval operation that queries existing backup metadata without modifying any data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List all backed up versions of a stored procedure with metadata. It is categorised as a Read tool in the MSSQL MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the MSSQL MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_sp_versions: 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 MSSQL MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_sp_versions 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_sp_versions 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_sp_versions. 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_sp_versions is provided by the MSSQL MCP Server MCP server (jpcanter/sql-server-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
