Lists all available packages that can be installed (READ-ONLY, safe)
AI agents call mikrotik_list_available_packages to retrieve information from MikroTik Cursor MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only queries and retrieves data about available packages on the MikroTik router. It performs no modifications, deletions, or execution of commands. The read-only designation and list operation confirm this is a pure data retrieval function with no side effects.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states "READ-ONLY, safe" and name indicates "list" operation which retrieves package information without modification.

Register the MikroTik Cursor MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for mikrotik_list_available_packages: 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 MikroTik Cursor MCP. Nothing to install.
mikrotik_list_available_packages 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 mikrotik_list_available_packages 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.
