Retrieve available SCIM resource types. Use this before creating resources to understand available resource types and schemas.
AI agents call resourcetypes to retrieve information from SCIM MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves metadata about available SCIM resource types and schemas without creating, modifying, or deleting any data. It has no capability to alter system state and poses minimal security risk even if called inappropriately by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'resourcetypes' and description states 'Retrieve available SCIM resource types' — a query operation with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Retrieve available SCIM resource types. Use this before creating resources to understand available resource types and schemas. It is categorised as a Read tool in the SCIM MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the SCIM MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for resourcetypes: 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 SCIM MCP Server. Nothing to install.
resourcetypes 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 resourcetypes 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 resourcetypes. 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.
resourcetypes is provided by the SCIM MCP Server MCP server (limosa-io/mcp-scim). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
