List every sitemap submitted for a Search Console property, with last submission and processing status.
AI agents call list_sitemaps to retrieve information from Gsc Mcp Connector without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves information about sitemaps that have been submitted to a Google Search Console property. It has no side effects, does not modify data, and does not execute external operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker could enumerate sitemaps to map site structure, but this information is typically accessible to anyone with GSC property access and poses no direct harm.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'List[s] every sitemap' with metadata about submission and status. No modification, deletion, or execution capability—purely retrieves and queries existing sitemap records.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List every sitemap submitted for a Search Console property, with last submission and processing status. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Gsc Mcp Connector MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Gsc Mcp Connector MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_sitemaps: 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 Gsc Mcp Connector. Nothing to install.
list_sitemaps 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_sitemaps 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_sitemaps. 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_sitemaps is provided by the Gsc Mcp Connector MCP server (juju78/gsc-mcp-connector). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
