parse_capture_file
AI agents call parse_capture_file to retrieve information from Logic Analyzer AI MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool name 'parse_capture_file' implies reading and parsing an existing capture file to extract data, which is a read operation with no side effects. The description is empty, lowering confidence. In the context of this server (logic analyzer data capture and analysis), parsing a file is most likely a read/query operation. Severity is low as misuse would at most expose signal capture data.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'parse_capture_file' and empty description. In context of a Logic Analyzer MCP server, sibling tools suggest reading/parsing capture files is a read operation.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
parse_capture_file. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Logic Analyzer AI MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Logic Analyzer AI MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for parse_capture_file: 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 Logic Analyzer AI MCP. Nothing to install.
parse_capture_file 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 parse_capture_file 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 parse_capture_file. 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.
parse_capture_file is provided by the Logic Analyzer AI MCP server (michelebergo/logic-analyzer-ai-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
