View whitelist for a frozen token.
AI agents call get_whitelist to retrieve information from Basis MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The verb 'view' and 'get' pattern clearly indicate this tool retrieves existing whitelist information. This is a read-only operation with no side effects—it does not create, modify, delete, or execute code. The blast radius of misuse is minimal as an AI agent cannot cause harm by viewing whitelist data.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_whitelist' with description 'View whitelist for a frozen token' indicates a retrieval operation that queries data without modification.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
View whitelist for a frozen token. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Basis MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Basis MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_whitelist: 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 Basis MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_whitelist 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 get_whitelist 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 get_whitelist. 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.
get_whitelist is provided by the Basis MCP Server MCP server (launch-on-basis/mcp-ts). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
