List all work packages (tasks) with optional filtering.
AI agents call list_work_packages to retrieve information from Tonle OpenProject 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 or queries work packages from OpenProject with optional filters applied. It has no side effects—it does not create, modify, delete, or execute operations. The blast radius if misused is minimal, as an AI agent could at worst retrieve sensitive project data it shouldn't see, but cannot alter or destroy anything.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'list_work_packages' and description states 'List all work packages (tasks) with optional filtering.' The verb 'list' and action of retrieving/querying data without modification are characteristic of Read operations.

Register the Tonle OpenProject MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_work_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 Tonle OpenProject MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_work_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 list_work_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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for list_work_packages. 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.
list_work_packages is provided by the Tonle OpenProject MCP Server MCP server (liratanak/openproject-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
