List all available bbot modules
AI agents call list_bbot_modules to retrieve information from BBOT MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This is a read-only operation that queries available modules. It has no side effects, does not execute code, does not modify data, and does not commit financial obligations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could learn about available scanning capabilities, but cannot directly cause harm with this tool alone.
From the tool's definition Tool is named 'list_bbot_modules' and described as 'List all available bbot modules' — a purely informational operation that retrieves and enumerates available modules without modifying state or triggering execution.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List all available bbot modules. It is categorised as a Read tool in the BBOT MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the BBOT MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_bbot_modules: 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 BBOT MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_bbot_modules 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_bbot_modules 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_bbot_modules. 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_bbot_modules is provided by the BBOT MCP Server MCP server (marlinkcyber/bbot-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
list_bbot_modules is one line of BBOT MCP Server's registry record.
The record carries the whole server: verified identity, auth posture, risk grade, every tool classified, recommended policy — re-checked continuously.
