List registered targets (credentials are never shown).
AI agents call gateway_list_targets to retrieve information from Claude Team MCP 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 target information without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. The explicit exclusion of credentials confirms no sensitive data exposure occurs. This is a straightforward data retrieval operation with minimal blast radius if misused by an agent—it would only enumerate existing targets without affecting system state.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'list' and description explicitly states 'List registered targets'. The description clarifies that 'credentials are never shown', indicating this is a read-only operation that retrieves metadata without exposing sensitive information.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List registered targets (credentials are never shown). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Claude Team MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Claude Team MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for gateway_list_targets: 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 Claude Team MCP. Nothing to install.
gateway_list_targets 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 gateway_list_targets 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 gateway_list_targets. 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.
gateway_list_targets is provided by the Claude Team MCP server (lakshan12367/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
