List processes launched explicitly through cpe-run lifecycle management. This is report-only.
AI agents call managed_process_list to retrieve information from Clean Process Ended without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool performs a query/list operation that retrieves data about processes managed by the lifecycle system. No modifications, deletions, executions, or financial operations are performed. The explicit 'report-only' designation confirms this is purely informational.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'This is report-only' and the action is to 'List processes' which retrieves information about managed subprocess lifecycle without modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List processes launched explicitly through cpe-run lifecycle management. This is report-only. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Clean Process Ended MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Clean Process Ended MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for managed_process_list: 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 Clean Process Ended. Nothing to install.
managed_process_list 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 managed_process_list 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 managed_process_list. 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.
managed_process_list is provided by the Clean Process Ended MCP server (marcelocaporale/clean-process-ended). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
managed_process_list is one line of Clean Process Ended's registry record.
The record carries the whole server: verified identity, auth posture, risk grade, every tool classified, recommended policy — re-checked continuously.
