AI agents call tb_list_boards to retrieve information from Forgespec without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns a list of task boards with optional filtering by project. It performs a read-only operation with no state changes, no execution of external commands, and no destructive or financial implications. The phrase 'List all' and 'discover board IDs' indicate pure data retrieval functionality.
From the tool's definition List all task boards - retrieves and displays task board data without modification or side effects
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List all task boards, optionally filtered by project. Use this to discover board IDs after context loss. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Forgespec MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Forgespec MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for tb_list_boards: 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 Forgespec. Nothing to install.
tb_list_boards 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 tb_list_boards 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 tb_list_boards. 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.
tb_list_boards is provided by the Forgespec MCP server (lleontor705/forgespec-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
