List all views available for a given cell.
AI agents call virtuoso_list_cellviews to retrieve information from Virtuoso Schematic MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and displays metadata about available views for a cell in Cadence Virtuoso schematics. It performs a read-only inspection operation similar to list or get operations, with no capability to modify, execute, or delete data. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an agent could only enumerate views, which is information already accessible within the design context.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'virtuoso_list_cellviews' and description 'List all views available for a given cell' indicate a query/enumeration operation with no data modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List all views available for a given cell. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Virtuoso Schematic MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Virtuoso Schematic MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for virtuoso_list_cellviews: 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 Virtuoso Schematic MCP. Nothing to install.
virtuoso_list_cellviews 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 virtuoso_list_cellviews 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 virtuoso_list_cellviews. 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.
virtuoso_list_cellviews is provided by the Virtuoso Schematic MCP server (michelebergo/virtuoso-schematic-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
