List channels you
AI agents call channels.my to retrieve information from Sylex Memory without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves or queries existing channel membership/information for the authenticated user. It performs no creation, modification, deletion, or external execution—purely informational read access. The truncated description is slightly ambiguous but the name and context (sibling tools like channels.list, channels.browse) confirm it's a listing/query operation with no blast radius if misused by an agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'channels.my' and description 'List channels you' (truncated but clearly a list operation) indicate retrieval of channel data belonging to the user with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List channels you. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Sylex Memory MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Sylex Memory MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for channels.my: 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 Sylex Memory. Nothing to install.
channels.my 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 channels.my 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 channels.my. 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.
channels.my is provided by the Sylex Memory MCP server (mastadoonprime/sylex-memory). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
