List all regimens — recurring schedules of sequences (e.g. daily watering, weekly fertilizing). A regimen is a list of {sequence_id, time_offset} items applied to plants/groups via FarmEvents.
AI agents call farmbot_list_regimens to retrieve information from Farmbot Agent 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 regimen data (schedule definitions) from FarmBot without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a read-only operation with minimal blast radius — incorrect usage cannot harm the physical system or data integrity.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'farmbot_list_regimens' and description 'List all regimens' indicates a query/retrieval operation with no side effects. The description explicitly states it lists recurring schedules without modifying them.

List all regimens — recurring schedules of sequences (e.g. daily watering, weekly fertilizing). A regimen is a list of {sequence_id, time_offset} items applied to plants/groups via FarmEvents. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Farmbot Agent MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Farmbot Agent MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for farmbot_list_regimens: 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 Farmbot Agent. Nothing to install.
farmbot_list_regimens 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 farmbot_list_regimens 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 farmbot_list_regimens. 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.
farmbot_list_regimens is provided by the Farmbot Agent MCP server (kieranklaassen/farmbot-agent-cli-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
