WHAT IT DOES

What sheet_list does on Mcp Anything

AI agents call sheet_list to retrieve information from Mcp Anything without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why sheet_list is rated Low

This tool performs a query operation on a spreadsheet to retrieve metadata about available sheets. It has no side effects, does not modify or delete data, and does not execute arbitrary code or trigger external operations. It is purely informational and falls clearly into the Read category with low severity since listing sheets poses minimal risk to data integrity or system security.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'sheet_list' and description 'List all sheets in the active Calc spreadsheet' indicate a read-only operation that retrieves and enumerates existing data without modification.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs sheet_list safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Anything, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For sheet_list, this is the rule to start with:

sheet_list Allowed

sheet_list is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "sheet_list": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Mcp Anything, apply this rule, and every sheet_list call is checked against it from then on.
