Lists all available prompts
AI agents call list_prompts to retrieve information from Promptopia MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs a retrieval/query operation with no side effects. It lists available data but does not create, modify, delete, or execute anything. It poses minimal risk as it only exposes information about existing prompts.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_prompts' and description 'Lists all available prompts' indicate a read-only query operation that retrieves and displays existing prompt metadata without modification.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Lists all available prompts. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Promptopia MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Promptopia MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_prompts: 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 Promptopia MCP. Nothing to install.
list_prompts 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_prompts 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_prompts. 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_prompts is provided by the Promptopia MCP server (lumile/promptopia-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
