List recent Vercel deployments, optionally scoped to a project.
AI agents call list_deployments to retrieve information from Universal Mcp Toolkit without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and retrieves deployment information from Vercel without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward data retrieval function scoped to viewing existing deployment records. The risk is low as misuse would only expose deployment metadata without affecting infrastructure or services.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'List recent Vercel deployments' - a retrieval operation with no modification of state. The verb 'list' and the read-only nature of querying deployment history indicate data retrieval with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List recent Vercel deployments, optionally scoped to a project. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Universal Mcp Toolkit MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Universal Mcp Toolkit MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_deployments: 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 Universal Mcp Toolkit. Nothing to install.
list_deployments 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_deployments 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_deployments. 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_deployments is provided by the Universal Mcp Toolkit MCP server (markgatcha/universal-mcp-toolkit). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
