Why list_websocket_connections needs a policy

This tool queries and returns WebSocket connection state without creating, modifying, or deleting anything. It is purely observational. Severity is 'medium' rather than 'low' because an AI agent listing WebSocket connections could discover sensitive communication channels (authentication tokens, API keys, user data) flowing through those connections, even though the tool itself only reads metadata.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_websocket_connections' and description 'List all WebSocket connections' indicate retrieval of connection metadata without modification.

How to control list_websocket_connections

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and JS Reverse Strong MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list_websocket_connections:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "list_websocket_connections": {}
  }
}

list_websocket_connections is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register JS Reverse Strong MCP — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
