THE RISK

Low Risk

Why list-wikis needs a policy

This tool queries and retrieves a list of configured wikis without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward read operation that returns metadata about available wikis. The low severity reflects minimal risk from misuse—an agent could learn about available wikis but cannot interact with or modify them through this tool alone.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'list-wikis' and description 'Lists every configured wiki' indicates retrieval of configuration data with no modification or side effects.

POLICY

How to control list-wikis

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Mediawiki Mcp Server Olioex, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for list-wikis:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "list-wikis": {}
  }
}

list-wikis is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register Mediawiki Mcp Server Olioex — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
