List the registered funding sources as [{id, kind}].
AI agents call list_sources to retrieve information from Bandiradar without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and returns metadata about funding sources (id and kind fields) without modifying, deleting, or executing any actions. It is a simple read/query operation on a configuration or reference dataset. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could only enumerate available sources, not alter them or trigger external operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'list_sources' and description states 'List the registered funding sources' — a pure data retrieval operation with no side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List the registered funding sources as [{id, kind}]. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Bandiradar MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Bandiradar MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_sources: 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 Bandiradar. Nothing to install.
list_sources 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_sources 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_sources. 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_sources is provided by the Bandiradar MCP server (mayai-it/bandiradar). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
