Why list_meetings needs a policy

This tool retrieves or queries a list of meetings from Fathom.video without modifying, deleting, or executing operations. It has no side effects beyond returning existing data. The lack of a description is somewhat limiting, but the tool name and sibling context (search_meetings, get_meeting) clearly establish it as a read operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_meetings' with context of sibling tools that retrieve meeting data (get_meeting, get_transcript, search_meetings, get_action_items). Pattern matches read operations: list, search, get, export.

How to control list_meetings

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

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

list_meetings 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 Fathom MCP Server — 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.
