Docker containers list karo
AI agents call docker_ps to retrieve information from Universal Dev MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves the list of Docker containers (equivalent to 'docker ps' command), which is a read-only operation that queries container metadata with no side effects, data modification, or code execution. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius from misuse—it only exposes container status information.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'docker_ps' and description 'Docker containers list karo' indicate listing/querying Docker containers without modification or execution of operations.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Docker containers list karo. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Universal Dev MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Universal Dev MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for docker_ps: 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 Universal Dev MCP. Nothing to install.
docker_ps 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 docker_ps 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 docker_ps. 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.
docker_ps is provided by the Universal Dev MCP server (kallusuvaidyam/universal_mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
